Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from the Kite Jungle and Sharkwind El Salvador spot lists and a Waverii guided-sessions listing at Bocana Costa del Sol. Kite Jungle counts only about 18–33 days a year with 12+ knots (thermal wind excluded) and lists no kite school, and the one guide describes his service as non-instructional for independent riders — so no spot carries a beginner label. Wind sectors are my reading of the Pacific sea breeze; pins are approximate. Water temperature is a seasonal estimate.
