Flat to choppy, and the more wind the nicer the small waves get. Beautiful, green and clear water. Shallow area.

Small beach with beautiful, soft sand. About 40m deep, so enough space to launch a kite. But be careful with sunbathers. A few smooth reef plates to the south of the beach. And trees behind the beach, be careful when launching and landing a kite.
