Argentina might not be on the most popular kiteboarding destinations list, but it definitely has some good spots and any level kiter is welcome. The water conditions are endless, you can kite lagoons, rivers, beaches or open waters. If you’re not sure where to go, you can go on organized kite tours where they take you around the Patagonia, or they even have some tours that are three days long where you go kiteboarding with other participants and have meals together. It is particularly popular December and January; depending on how you like to kite you should plan around that.

Other popular wind and water sports in Argentina are windsurfing, surfing, rafting, paragliding and fishing. Some fun things that you can do are learn and dance Tango, go sightseeing and visit the Recoleta cemetery, play tennis or hockey. Argentina is also popular for their nightlife, whether it is to go clubbing, bar hopping or listen to live music.
