Gear & clothing
Gear · Bring 14-17m kites for the light average winds of 9.1 knots; consider a smaller 12m kite for stronger wind days. A freestyle or all-around board works well in the flat water conditions.
Clothing · A 3/2mm wetsuit is suitable for most seasons; water temperatures are cooler during winter months (Jun-Aug), so consider 4/3mm during these periods.
