Very nice spot, the sea is very calm here, except for storms or "recalones" when we have big waves, normally we have flat choppy water. The kite spot is like 500m long, with prevailing NE winds, try not to go too much downwind, since if you pass the Petit Laffite Hotel you will have to get out at a shore with sharp rocks, or damage your board. There is like 15m from the sea to the fence, depends on the tides, and season of the year, when the wind stays south for a long time the sand goes and reduces to like 6m, sand comes back with bad weather, good for launching and walking upwind, there's normally no people, only tourists passing by. Winds normally from NE, SE, E. Good winds from November to May, normally light during summer. Normally the wind is a little stronger than in Playa Del Carmen. Warm weather almost all the year around, a little cold in winter. Water: Chop, Smallwave. Features: Rooms, Camping, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
