In a few words
During peak season, the wind picks up every day , blowing at 20 to 30 knots, and beautiful waves form, perfect for your kiteboarding sessions ! The beach is right in front of your lodge, and the beach boys are there to help you get out and about each day. Embark on a 35km downwind run to explore the wild coastline ! Yoga classes and massages are available at the hotel for your well-being.
The lodge faces the beach and the kiteboarding launch site . Built by kiteboarding enthusiasts, it perfectly captures the spirit of the local riders: simple, comfortable, and welcoming . It features bamboo lodges, some with sea views, as well as chalets and garden-side "glamping" options.

The strength and regularity of the wind, with a safe side-onshore direction
