Why Riders Love It

Excellent, constant wind. From October to April stronger and more reliable. Summer can also be excellent, but not so strong. Normally thermal wind all year.

📅

When to Go

Warm all year-round. Always sunshine. Warm water. Not wetsuit needed, maybe in winter a shorty. Sun protection is very important.

🌊

What to Expect

Big shallow area (about 2x1 km) with flat water. Choppy with stronger winds. Sandy bottom with a small reef in the south part of the lagoon. Protected by outer reef with a 500 m wide channel to the deeper sea. In the Channel very flat water over two meters Deep. From there (direction north, 300 m) you will find 2 point breaks at a riff break. But the water is still deep enough.
