Levante (NE, E) works not as good as on other spots. Work best with Poniente and South wind. You can find the typical Levante wind (east), which is usually side-off at Conil. In this Levante days you won't find many people bathing in the beach as the sand is all over the place. Gusty, side-off, flat with sometimes a perfect wave to surf. In the last days of Levante it usually goes to southeast and is very different, there you get side to side-on conditions, more choppy and small waves, but safer. With Poniente (west) wind its lighter, and very constant, its typical thermal winds starting from 14:00 onwards, sometimes too light so bring your bigger kite. Conditions are side-on from the right and there is choppy all over the place, and many many people in the beach.

During summer, go to the left of the town, where the river Salado ends, from the left of the river you can kite, usually no problems there unless you cause problems. This area there are not many people on the beach, its quiet so usually no problems, but...you never know. I wouldn't kite inside the (small) river, there you may have problems (fines). Do not kite in front of the town as you will get a fine for sure.
