About Puerto Rosario

Known for sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. We don't know which way the shore faces here, so we can't warn of offshore wind: kite and windsurf aren't scored.

A spot for sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it. The town to stay in is Colonia Valdense.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).

Rough cost (estimate): about US$1,230–US$2,350 each

about US$1,230–US$2,350 each · 6 nights, 2 sharing: flights, hire car, stay, food.

Our estimate from typical public prices, not a quote: check the real prices before you book (where they come from). Prices are about, in US Dollar (USD): our pound figures at the European Central Bank's rate of 30 October 2026.
