Anse Mourouk
Mauritius
Anse Mourouk is an unmissable kitesurfing spot in Rodrigues, in the Indian Ocean. Located in the southeast of the island, this fine sandy beach lined with palm trees offers a paradise-like setting with its vast turquoise lagoon and translucent water.
Blown by the trade winds all year round, it attracts riders of all levels, from beginners to advanced, thanks to its flat and safe water. The beach is very large, allowing for sessions without crowds, in an authentic and relaxed atmosphere.
Surrounded by a lagoon of over 200 km², Anse Mourouk offers an immense playground to progress in freestyle or explore towards the coral reef.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The wind generally blows side-on shore from the southeast, thanks to the dominant trade winds, ideal for easy launching from the beach. The navigation area extends into the vast shallow lagoon, with a large beach for launching and landing without major obstacles.
The water surface is mostly flat in the lagoon, perfect for beginners and freestyle, but transitions to chop or small waves near the reef depending on the tide and wind. The tidal amplitudes are significant, making the spot particularly usable at high tide for more depth and freedom.
For advanced riders, you can head out to the reef waves by passing the barrier, or do downwinds along the islets with a boat. Be cautious of boats and buoys in certain areas of the lagoon.
