Hell yeah!
But best about it is that you have the choice between a super healthy lifestyle retreat style, or a fun social stay, or mix both of them. What is important to understand is that if you decide to go sleep early and wake up early you will not know anything about the town’s nightlife. Mancora has two faces, every day you choose which one you like the most.
REEF BOOTIES
99% of surfers and kitesurfers do not wear reef booties here.
However, you are free to bring yours, it does not take to much space or weight.
In Mancora from the club, it is just sand. Now if you rent one of the luxury houses in front of the surf spot, you may enjoy it at low tide.
SURF KITEBOARD LEASH
Yes, good riders should bring one, even if there is one only expert spot that requires one.
HELMETS
Even if a very small minority of kitesurfers use helmets, I guess it will become a standard like with skating and skiing. So yeah, it’s always better with, than without. Most kite accidents happen with your board.
Are Mancora and the area a good spot for foiling?
Yes, indeed, the sea deepens only a few meters from the shore and then you’re ready to foil everywhere in the bay. You can go upwind from our kite club to check the wave point break and the fishermen and glide with the turtles close to the pier.
Yes, there are several cash machines in Mancora. But note that the cash machines in Peru only distribute a maxi mum amount of US$400 per withdrawal even with a VISA Gold, Infinite, etc. For each withdraw, your bank charges a fixed fee + a nexchange rate commission. This can become quite a budget if you only count on your credit card, in addition , you may reach its limit and run out of cash.
