Beach is ok at low tide but quite small at high tide. Sometimes a bit difficult to take off or land your kite. Nice piece of grass in front of the hotel to put and dry the gear with no sand.

Access
|
No information |
Just south of the airport. From the international airport, turn left and drive south for about 3.5km on the main road. Ascend a hill and as you descend the other side, you’ll see Katiolo discotheque on the left (at the deep bend in the road). From that point onwards there are several places where you will be able to park your car and access the beach.
Rules |
None |
Not very much except your hotel and a couple of discos.
