Launching is manageable in NNW and N wind directions which align with the beach orientation; expect choppy water entry requiring practice with wave launches and edge control.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Bring 14-17m kites to handle the average 7.2kt winds with room for lighter wind days. A directional or wave board is ideal for managing the choppy ocean conditions and variable wind.

Clothing · A 3-5mm wetsuit is recommended during winter months (Dec-Jan) when water temperatures drop; lighter 2-3mm suits suffice for spring and fall sessions.

Crowd & etiquette
