Best conditions occur during February-April and November-December dry seasons when wind is more consistent. Check local conditions at nearby resorts and respect monsoon periods when wind becomes unreliable.

Launch from the beach during NE/ENE wind conditions which are most consistent. The choppy ocean conditions require careful entry; wade through shallow water and launch where wave action is manageable.

Respect the busy tourist areas and avoid launching near swimmers and snorkelers. Coordinate with other kiters as the spot can get crowded during peak season months.

A 2-3mm wetsuit is sufficient year-round given the tropical location, though many kiters use just boardshorts during warmer months. Sun protection and a rash guard are essential for UV exposure.

Im Wasser

Boardshorts oder Bikini mit Rashguard oder UV-Shirt.
