Wave and flat water with small waves at low tide. Awesome, sandy beach, except for public holidays and long weekends - it gets crowded with fisherman and divers. Enough space to host over 200 kiters even at high tide. One can drive to to edge of the nature reserve away from most of the crowds otherwise it's a long walk. This is statistically the place in South Africa where you will get wind over 12 knots, over 80% in the month of November. You can always ride 3 out of 4 days. NE and ENE is the best for Sodwana Bay. Not great in the SW, a bit gusty. Hot, as per the typical African sun. No wetsuit needed. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave. Features: Shop, Rescue, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
