Where to rent windsurfing gear at Playa del Carmen, Mexico

[mblinov]

Hi

I am going to be at a wedding at Playa del Carmen, Mexico (35 min south of Cancun). Understanding that it is really not a windsurfing destination, I was still wondering if anybody can advise a place to rent gear near by. Will be there in November.

Thanks, Mike

Mike, if you can swing a day trip over to Cozumel I know of a guy there that use to rent kit. His name is Raul and his concession is about 3 miles north of the ferry terminal. Take the ferry to Cozumel and when you get off the boat you can ask the cab drivers until you find someone that knows where his location is. It's adjacent to a nice hotel/resort but I can't remember the name....

The channel between Playa del Carmen and Cozumel can get good wind. Problem is I don't know if you'll find a decent kit in Playa del Carmen. Hope you score a session on your trip.
