L'Ahuir beach is the natural sandy area north of Gandia: 1,760 metres of sand with protected dunes and no buildings behind. Gandia has two beaches enabled for kitesurf, and one is the south of l'Ahuir, where this launch is located, about 200 metres from the nautical base that marks the end of Platja Nord. The wind is the east-southeast thermal on spring and summer afternoons, side-on, for freeride and learning. In autumn and winter, Levante and Gregal bring waves, and Poniente blows offshore. Rules: the dunes must only be crossed via the walkways, there is a signposted nudist area and in summer you only enter the water through the buoyed channel. The l'Ahuir car park is about 700 metres to the north; showers, bars and the Gandia Surf windsurf school are on Platja Nord.
