Wind details:
Westerly winds with depressions. Best from fall to spring. Summer lighter. Nice NE and E winds in summer, but not very often. Works in all wind directions, but winds over land are gustier. Easterlies get accelerated so if Easterlies are lighter somewhere else on the island, get to this beach.
On the water:
Water details:
Flat to choppy water. Big shallow area for about 250m. Sandy bottom.
