Praia de Carlota
Cape Verde · Boa Vista
Praia Carlota, located in Sal Rei on the island of Boa Vista in Cape Verde, is a long white sand beach that stretches along a spacious bay. The spot is just a 10-minute walk south of Sal Rei, the island's capital, making it easily accessible while remaining pleasantly quiet compared to other more popular spots in the area.
It is a favored place for riders of all levels due to its flat and smooth water near the shore, ideal for progressing in freestyle and foiling. The beach offers an authentic natural setting with few people, allowing for stress-free sessions. Several kitesurfing schools operate in the area, including Kitekriol and the Duotone Pro Center, providing quality services and a relaxed atmosphere.

Praia Carlota benefits from regular and consistent trade winds blowing mainly from the northwest, with a side-offshore to offshore orientation relative to the beach. The water surface is characterized by a lagoon with very flat water near the shore, perfect for technical maneuvers, while small waves appear further offshore and on very windy days.
Water entry is directly from the sandy beach, with no major obstacles. The depth allows for easy takeoff in foiling directly from the shore. The spot offers a spacious and safe navigation area, with good visibility. Conditions remain stable throughout the day thanks to the regularity of the trade winds. Some centers offer a rescue boat service for offshore wind sessions, enhancing safety.
