Launch notes

The flat water and gentle beach conditions make launching easy for beginners. Light to moderate ENE/E winds are most consistent, with launches best during early morning or late afternoon when sea breezes peak.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Use 14-17m kites to maximize the light average wind of 7.4 knots; larger boards with more flotation are ideal for the flat water. A freestyle or freeride board works well for learning in these calm conditions.

Clothing · A rash guard or light long-sleeve shirt provides adequate sun protection; wetsuits are rarely needed given the tropical water temperature year-round. High SPF sunscreen and a hat are essential.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect swimmers and fishing areas by staying in designated kite zones. Share the water courteously with other water sports enthusiasts and local fishermen.

Additional notes

Best conditions occur during the austral summer months (Dec-Feb) and windy season (Aug-Nov) when trade winds strengthen. Check local tide tables as the spot is in a bay with notable tidal ranges that affect water depth and launching conditions.
