One if not the one most populated spot by locals kiters and visitors due to its exposure to dominant wind and freedom of usage of the beach and sea! Short sandy beach, pernhaps enough to accommodate about 15 kites! The sea is full of parked boats during the warm season, the "grand slalom" is a must to go beyond parked boats. Not the best spot for a learner as the span of the gulf is very narrow and it takes experience to ride a bit offshore!
