The data being taken in Tenerife can not be %100 accurate but it’s extremely useful. If you find it too complicated, try the ones below these lines, and also for more accurate local conditions. If you decide to give it a go type this once asked inside the website.

NorthWind stats: By far this is the favorite side for pilots, there are several launches and it’s usually flyable. Long dynamic flights are common and it is also suitable for acro (not everywhere), for cross country you will need specific conditions and local tricks.
Info on top is usually enough but here you have some other features.
This link will take you to the favorite site in the island, the reason being that it gives you info about waves (surfer’s paradise), but the reason I like it is because it gives you wind speed in knots, and its in several languages.
