L'Aigua Blanca dune beach, south of the Platja d'Oliva centre. Kiteforum advises not to launch next to Oliva Nova but further northwest, towards these beaches, where local kiters gather. Wind is the southeast thermal on afternoons from June to October, side-on, 4 to 6 Beaufort; the local school mentions 12 to 30 knots on summer afternoons, although it is less consistent in July and August. In autumn and winter, Gregal and Levante bring small to medium waves, and Poniente blows offshore. Rules: in summer, you only enter the water through a buoyed channel, and according to kiteforum, kite is officially prohibited in Oliva Nova during high season although it is tolerated. Oliva Surf is the only school authorised to teach kite on Oliva beach. There are cafes on the promenade, parking in the streets and campsites in l'Aigua Morta.
