Kitesurfing

When the trade winds settle in, the flat water inside the reef turns into one of the better places on this coast to learn to kitesurf — steady wind, warm water, and a wide lagoon with room to make mistakes in.

Schools along the bay run lessons from a first afternoon on the trainer kite through to independent riding, and hire gear to anyone who already rides.

The wind is seasonal, so it is worth asking us what the conditions are likely to be before you plan a trip around it.
