Welcome to Tarifa on a windy day. The local´s name it "Levantera". It´s a eastern wind that accelerates though the Strait of Gibraltar and blows full power along the white sandy beaches of Tarifa, Southern Spain. It´s great for the thousands of kitesurfer and windsurfers that visit this location every year, but be prepared if you just want to sunbathe !!!!! This is a series of images that show what it´s like to be on one of these beautiful and wild beaches with Levante...
