This location is very diverse; we have seen some huge waves on the outside of the atoll, but did not kite these! At the time we visited, there were no medical facilities. You will be almost certain that you will be the only one kiting. There are quite a few pearl farms (each one built on a little coral island inside the lagoon) that you can kite too. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking.
