Level: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert

Type: Ocean

Water type: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Small wave, Medium wave

Water hazards: Swimmers, Animals, Currents, Ships, Reefs, Corals

Water quality: Crystal clear

Infos: Flat to choppy water. Fairly shallow waters possible. Beware of the outer areas of this lagoon as the bottom is covered with fragile and sharp "stag horn" types of corals. To the left is a pass (La Passe "Du Puis") in the reef here, that offers surfable waves in summer when the winds are slack. This wave is a right hander, fast and tubular in shape, and no place for beginners. The current in the channel is potent, and has to be avoided at all costs when paddling back in.

Beach type & size: Sand - Medium

Infos: One of the more popular spots for kiting is in a big moon shape, with lots of hotels and touristic activity both on and off the water. Trees next to the beach.

Identified hazards: Trees, Bystanders

Beachgoer: None
