We’ve been kiteboarding in Baja California Sur, Mexico for nearly 3 decades.

A lot has changed, but we continually stock the best gear available and the wind is blowing!

If you’re looking for an authentic Baja experience, you’ll find all the right ingredients at Playa Central. Visit us at the big yellow building on the beach, right next to the La Ventana campground.

Testimonials

★★★★★

One of the best spots in town. They have a bar/restaurant, a kite school and shop, great music, lots of special nights with DJ'S, shows and kids activities. An ATM! So much fun to hang out there after a day of kiting, for drinks and food and great company

★★★★★

Best spot for windsport lessons! My boyfriend and I both took Wingfoiling lessons from Playa Central and we had great experiences. They were really good at communication and always made sure the conditions were right for our lessons. We learned from a few different instructors and they were all great! The restaurant and ceviche bar were a plus for a post lesson snack or drink!

★★★★★

Wood fired pizza [was] very good with thin crust just the way I like it. Drinks were good and the staff was friendly and helpful. We were watching the kite surfers trying to figure out how hard it would be to learn. Maybe next time.

★★★★★

Such a great place to chill out while having a drink or to have dinner with friends and family. They have so many games to enjoy for adults and kids. The rooftop view is great.

★★★★★

If you get hungry in between sessions, there is the restaurant right there serving pizza and beer. (and amazing fresh sushi at the Ceviche bar.)! I highly recommend Playa Central as your base of operations for renting or learning wind sports in La Ventana.
