The Spot

Golf de Roses is not only a ideal choice for a family vacation but has also a lot to offer for couples and groups. Several sand banks in the water turn the spot into a “semi-shallow water area” with the huge, fine sandy coast sloping gently into the water. In the morning, when the wind is light, the spot is a paradise for kids and beginners. Our motivated professional instructors teach kids from the age of 6 upwards. Light rigs and stable boards make their first attempts “easy-peasy”. Thanks to the cross-onshore wind no one can drift; nevertheless our life boat is always ready. Here, beginners, intermediates and experienced surfers can easily make progress. Signs and buoys clearly mark the windsurfing and kitesurfing areas so that no one gets in each others way. The bathing zone is situated on the left hand side of the windsurf zone.


Children In Golf De Roses


Golf de Roses is the perfect spot for children instruction, a place where many families make holidays. There is a camping site and apartments/holiday houses very close to the center. The water is shallow for about 50 m. In the mornings there are light winds which offer the ideal weather for children. The wind is side onshore, that means very safe and the children do not have to be afraid to drift to the open sea.

The Wind In Golf De Roses


In the warmer months, a thermal wind from the southeast is the main wind in the bay of Roses. During the last few years, the southwind “Garbi” has blown more often, and increases the thermal effect. The “Tramontana” from the north normally blows in the cooler months, however, it can also create heavy winds in midsummer for days. In front of the Club Mistral center it blows sideshore from the left. On high days, impressive waves build up close the shore. From May to September, the thermal wind is very reliable. It happens more and more often that the wind turns in the late afternoon to sideshore from the right and reaches up to 6 Beaufort.

Activities In Golf De Roses


Golf De Roses has many different activities on offer for all ages, a ideal destination for the whole family. This is a very alive resort, everywhere you look you will see people jogging, mount biking, race biking, swimming and more. This area is also very notable for its 'skydiving' center! You must try this if you have the nerve!

Nightlife In Golf De Roses


In the evening there are many charming restaurants and cafés/bars dotted around within a 10/20 minute car drive away. For those seeking a little more 'action' there are some big night clubs and bars in the nearest main town about a 30 minute drive away.
