Windsurfing, also sailboarding or boardsailing, is a surface water sport that combines elements of sport=surfing and sport=sailing, where the rider stands on a board powered by the wind through a sail. This tag is used to mark a physical feature related to windsurfing, e.g. indicates that a sport facility is for windsurfing.

How to map

Since sport=windsurfing is a non-physical tag, it should be combined with other top-level tags; e.g.:

  • natural=beach - A landform along a body of water which consists of sand, shingle or other loose material.
  • natural=water - Any inland body of water, whether natural or artificial, that is related to windsurfing, usually water=lake, water=reservoir, water=river, etc.
  • leisure=beach_resort - A managed beach, including within the boundary any associated facilities. Entry may also require payment of a fee.
  • leisure=sports_centre - A distinct facility where multiple sports take place within an enclosed area (multiple outdoor or/and indoor pitches, tracks etc.).
  • shop=surf - A shop selling surf related items (surfboards, windsurf boards, wakeboards, and other types of surf style boards).
  • shop=water_sports - A shop selling items for water sports activities.
  • shop=sports - A shop selling sports equipment and clothing.
  • amenity=training - Public place where you can get training.
  • amenity=surf_school - An establishment that teaches surfing and similar sports.
  • club=sport - A club for the purpose of playing or supporting one or more sports.

Multiple values can be used, e.g. sport=windsurfing;surfing;kitesurfing, whenever the same feature is related to multiple sports.
