The world professional windsurfing championships will be held at El Médano's Playa El Cabezo for the second consecutive year between 12 and 18 July, Granadilla mayor Jaime González Cejas has confirmed, after meeting to finalise details with representatives of club DB, Daniel Bruch, organizers of the event. The mayor said that the Ayuntamiento was delighted to support the championships since El Médano has become known as one of the best destinations in the world for aquatic sports.

Taking part in the event will be Philip Köster, and sisteres Daida and Iballa Ruano, winners from last year, and many other familiar names in the windsurfing community who will be coming to El Médano from around the world. As well as the sport, which will be the main draw for aficionados, there will also be a marquee for other activities and music. JA
