The water is great. Some small waves coming in the bay, which is protected by a reef, on which waves are breaking. Not great waves, but good to go riding. Strong swimming skills are a must. Look out for the reefs in the water. Be aware of their position and keep distance, since they can get shallow and you can hit them.

The beach is fine. Big enough to launch your kite. Unfortunately there some garbage, trash etc. on the beach from tourist. That's a shame, but it's soft sand. When you get there, go to the left side of the bay. There you can launch and land your kite.

The wind is always warm, blowing onshore. Morning the wind is about 3 Bft. Later the wind will get stronger, to 4-5 Bft. It's blowing here in Aruba Northeast all year long, maybe some lighter days in the month of September to November and in the beginning of December. But that only means it won't blow every day over 15 knots. The chance you can kiteboard are always 90%. Don't forget your small kite sizes! Days of 25 knots are quite normal. Save on this spot are sweet steady onshore wind!

Get directions from


Just get to the airport, and go only straight on. Then you'll get there very simple. You have to go there with a car. Remember, take a 4x4, or else you will get stuck in the sand. Only in the high season (November until Easter) will you need to reserve a rental car. Drive all the way south and before the south tip drive eastwards.
