Beautiful blue and clear water. Shallow for about 100m, at low tide even further. Lots of shallow sandbars around. Gets choppy with stronger winds. At this point the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico meet. Natural beach with white sand. A few shells around. Enough space since nothing is around. Usually wind all year. The best wind you have from December till August. During this time the wind is blowing between N and East. In winter every two weeks there is a Northerly wind that increases till 30 knots. Than it turns a little to Northeast and slowly dies till 10 knots. And this goes on and on. Directly at the cape N winds are onshore, also further east. In December it can happen that there is some rain but from January up to August there is no rain anymore. In December and January the temperature is between the 24-30°C and from February up to August it is between 30-35°C. During the year the water temperature is between 22-28°C. In winter a shorty can be useful on colder north wind days. Normally just shorts. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop. Features: None. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
