The positive aspect of the spot is that due to its unpopular character, you can find the best and not crowded spots for wind surfing. A good wind direction is south and southwest, which can produce a good swell starting from 2.5 m/8 ft high and reaching up to 5 m/16 ft.

In addition, waves are very powerful and hollow, that’s why it is recommended only for experienced practitioners to use this beach. Many hazard issues, like coral and reed bed-sea, very large swell and strong tidal pull to mention some. Just, come and enjoy the best surfing!!!
