Best Direction:

Main Direction:
- NW
Consistent NE thermal wind almost everyday in the summer. Generally 4-8 usually 5-6 Beaufort. Because it's a lagoon and you only really get one wind direction, it's side shore, onshore, and offshore depending on where you want to launch. Good all year, but best in the summer months (June to September).Edit

Private lagoons. Can only be used if you stay at Green hotel or Moonbeach Resort.Edit
Friendly bar at Moonbeach run by British kitesurfers and windsurfers. Green hotel very quiet. Local town interesting but not touristic (no bars).Edit
