Gear & clothing

Gear · 12-14m kites suit the 10.7kt average wind; bring a range since conditions vary seasonally. Flat water boards or directional boards work well; avoid wave boards.

Clothing · 3-4mm wetsuits for winter months (Nov-Feb); 2mm or spring suits for summer. Atlantic waters stay cool year-round, so always wear protection.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect local beach users and swimmers, especially on weekends. Keep upwind of other riders and maintain clear communication in crowded conditions.

Additional notes

Winter months (Jan-Feb) and autumn (Sep-Oct) offer the most consistent wind and fewer crowds. Check local forecasts carefully as Atlantic conditions can change rapidly.
