Great playground for kitesurfers. Wherever the wind blows offshore, the water is flat. In the middle of the bay, nice 0.5-1m waves roll in the bay for quiet a long way, so excellent for wave beginners to get several tacks. The complete bay is shallow. Perfect for beginners. Just paradise like colors, green and crystal clear water. Nice flat water, fun for speed runs and extremely flat at the point, east of the channel, which leads to another bay behind the cays. Here you will find another playground with shallow and flat/choppy water. Expect some current in the channel. Very safe riding in the big bay. Around the complete bay a very nice, soft sandy beach. Lots of space, normally few to no people around. The west part of the bay is the `Man of War Cay`, the east part the `Moriah Cay`. The point at the Moriah Cay offers the most space, big sandy area. Good winds almost all year coming mainly from NE and E. Lighter winds in summer. Depending on the direction the wind will be gustier to shore. The usual direction is NE and E. Better with NE winds, specially at the upper east end of the bay. Clean winds in the middle of the bay. At the point a bit gustier, since the wind will come over land. Behind the bay, through the channel towards Great Exuma, the wind will be more consistent again than on the point, but gusty behind the small island upwind. All directions work here. Excellent weather throughout the year. In winter a shorty or a wetsuit can be helpful on colder days. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave. Features: None. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
