This website gives details, maps, infos about all kitesurf beaches in Portugal - it's a great resource.
Beautiful beach and great for kids. The beach slopes very gently. Great for walks too. If you wander round to Rock you can get the ferry across to Padstow. Daimer Bay is great for windsurfers and surfing where there is a decent wind or swell. Voted one of the best beaches in the world.
It's a 2 minute drivefrom Polzeath, go through the Polzeath beach road and carry on for about a mile or two it's a turning on the right. if you get stuck ask a local.
Where Hamburg goes to the seaside: Northern Germany's biggest beach -- a seemingly endless beach which is over a mile wide in places. Try your hand at landyachting, windsurfing, kitesurfing, riding or simply walking on a beach. Or just sit in a traditional Strandkorb -- a 'beach basket' which is a combination windbreaker and armchair -- chill out and enjoy the view.
On the North Sea coast about 100 miles northwest of Hamburg.

The smart alternative to Tarifa! Isla Canela is at the far western end of the Costa de la Luz, and hasn't been hyped as much as Tarifa et al.
But it's on the Atlantic coast, so has good dependable winds and great beaches, making it the perfect spot for the expert and the novice alike. There are schools during the peak months, but the winter months attract the experienced who find this a good year-round venue. Lots of windsurfing and sailing opportunities as well, and superb golf courses if you fancy a change!
I've stayed at the Sunny Bonaire bungalows. Very nice bungalows!
Bonaire is a beautiful island in the Dutch Caribbean. It is a sleepy island, with a mellow atmosphere. A great place to learn scuba diving or windsurfing. And now I've my Padi!
Netherlands Antilles, Bonaire
