Wind on the beach

cross-onshore

What the spot record warns about

  • Open Pacific beach with chop and waves; not a flat-water or standing-depth lagoon.
  • High tide can reduce launch and landing space.
  • Shorebreak matters for beginners: on the northern side the waves break close to shore, which is where learners train, while the water off the point suits advanced riders and its waves arrive from farther out
  • A reef/wave feature is reported about 200 m offshore.
  • No formal rescue service for independent kiters is published.
  • Strong equatorial sun; cover up even on the days you need no wetsuit
