There are a number of clearly visible reefs in the lagoon that have to be circumvented. We therefore recommend that you wear shoes in the lagoon. There is a further challenge for very experienced wave riders about 2 km away: the outer reef, Manawa, with mast-high waves.
Best season from May - November, but even the rest of the year there is very good chance to kitesurf. Almost 300 days a year with more then 12kn wind.
