Shallow, with small waves and choppy on the outside. Warm water all year and with strong winds the waves get bigger (around 1m high). The water is brown due to rivers.
The beach has a lot of space during the low tide. There are no constructions making it safe to launch or land the kite even at the high tide. The beach is empty making it ideal for kitesurfing. There are some areas with grass, that are ideal to rig the equipment.
The winter is dry and very windy, there is some rain during the summer, but nothing that could spoil your visit if you plan to stay for 7 or more days. The climate is comfortable all year round with only a spring suit necessary for winter time. Temperatures in winter range from 18-28°C.

06-02-27 Eduardo Graf: This is the safest and best place to kitesurf in the city of Buzios, one of the best places to vizit while in Rio or Brazil. The water is brown due to rivers. There are many other places to go, but if you are planning a trip to Buzios, this a good place to kite or to learn how to kite.
