Why Riders Love It
Good wind from spring to autumn. Can be good in winter, but not as consistent as in summer. The wind can blow sideshore across the wide sandbank and there are no gusts or turbulence. The North to Northeast wind blows sideshore and gains force during the morning, reaching its maximum by midday. Towards the end of the afternoon, the wind generally dies down again. Normally a light breeze and flat water in the morning.
When to Go
Sunny all the time. 30°C in summer, 15-20°C in winter. Almost no rain all year long. Surfing all season.
What to Expect
Beautiful, crystal clear, flat water. No water during low tide for 100m then up to 2m at high tide. A (tide-dependent) waist-high area stretching 150 m into the sea. Apparently there can be waves when the wind is westerly. There are no reefs or stones, only just for about 10m in front of the beach, which are quiet sharp. Huge lagoons and playground further upwind (North). At low tide the lagoon dries out, leaving only few ridable channels. But the you get very flat and smooth water. Be careful at low tide anywhere, it can get very shallow. Around the lagoons you can find excellent speed areas for up to 800m long.
