Kitesurfing in Oualidia Lagoon: Conditions, Wind & Season
If you want to escape the incoming hordes of kiters in the most renowned kite spots, Oualidia Lagoon can be one of the best destinations.
Oualidia beach is a kind of lagoon that is created through an inlet of the sea with its tides. It is a great spot for kitesurfing because the wind is often stable and steady, especially in the winter season. The beach is large and sandy and offers plenty of safe space to set up the kite and launch.
The flat water of the lagoon is the perfect field to boost your freestyle/wakestyle tricks.
