At the south side of the island and its lagoon is a big reef, which is the end of that atoll. The water is flat and can be a bit choppy when the wind is stronger, but still very nice riding. Maldives have a tide, but the lagoon at the nautical center will always be deep enough for windsurfing as well.

There are corals around the island, but at the main watersports area it is no problem. If you have problems going upwind, I recommend wearing shoes, since the big reef is not too far away. At the east beach of Sun Island at the Nautic station you have an excellent beach with lost of space to launch and land the kite. The beach is never that packed, only few people around. And on the water it is normally very empty.

From around the world mainly charter airlines will approach Male. From Male Sun Island is about 100km (62 miles) further Southwest. The speed boat needs about 4-5 hours from Male and the seaplane (more exciting!) about 45-60 minutes. Your gear will come with the speedboat.
