The wind generally blows side-shore or side-on with directions from N, NNE, NE, ENE, E, ESE, SE, SSE, S, NW, NNW, confirming local info and providing good control on the water. The beach is large and sandy, perfect for launching and landing kites, with a spacious takeoff area.
The water is shallow and flat at high tide, with lots of shallow water, ideal for jibes and freestyle; at low tide, it becomes more technical with sand showing. Navigation is possible about 2 hours before and after high tide, in a wide area facing the beach.
Small waves sometimes form in chop or with a bit of swell, especially in strong wind, but the spot remains safe for most conditions due to its open space.
