Water is clear and beautiful. Can get choppy with the wind. Some little waves can form, depending on the shape of the sand bar below. Shallow out about 25 meters at low tide, then gradually deeper. The beach is decently wide and very long with little interruption! Soft sand. Some trees and palapas strewn about. Mostly safe - but always look for people/obstacles. Kiteboarding is still pretty rare in Cuba, so you'll draw quite a crowd. Winter winds are usually best, December to March, but according to locals it can be quite good beginning in October. You may get thermals in the afternoon. Be careful of hurricane season, June 1st to November 30th, it brings wind, but sometimes dangerous and worse. Very tropical weather. Winter may require shorty or full wetsuit if cold front. In spring a heat seeker is sufficient. Summer can be very hot and buggy. Water: Chop, Smallwave. Features: Rooms, School, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
