Why Riders Love It
About 17-20 knots in average. All directions will work, but mainly East winds. The 20 foot tall mangroves create a rotor that increases with the wind direction, giving you an extra boost when you jump.
When to Go
Warm and sunny weather year round. Tropical marine, mild. Little seasonal temperature variation. Water temp 79°F, air 85°F. No wetsuit needed. The South is dry compared to the North.
What to Expect
Kiting in mangroves, so very flat water with shallow areas. The mangrove islands are connected by fringing reefs that are exposed and run perpendicular to the wind direction. The reefs block all chop, creating super flat butter on the leeward side no matter how windy it gets.
