Top Windsurfing Locations - Scotland

On this week's Top Windsurfing Locations article we highlight the great land of Scotland.  Scotland has may not be the first place you think of for great windsurfing action but thankfully we're here to show you otherwise.  Scotland offers plenty of inland and coastal locations for you to test your rig out on and a bevy of interesting historical castles and sights to feast your eyes on while up on your board.

The climate of Scotland is temperate and oceanic, and tends to be very changeable. It is warmed by the Gulf Stream from the Atlantic, and as such has much milder winters (but cooler, wetter summers) than areas on similar latitudes. However, temperatures are generally lower than in the rest of the UK. Winter maximums average 6 °C (42.8 °F) in the lowlands, with summer maximums averaging 18 °C (64.4 °F).  While it may seem a bit cold to be out windsurfing out on the breezy waters in Scotland that shouldn't discourage you from hopping on a plane to this Top Windsurfing Location.
