Idyllic kite spots
For all lovers of gliding (windsurfing, kitesurfing, surfing, SUP, etc.), the most beautiful spots are found at the passes in the reef, along the perimeter of the lagoon. The most beautiful waves are born from the meeting of the deep waters of the pass with the reef waters on the surface.
The big wave spots near the passes are reserved for advanced surfers because of the reef's proximity to the surface, the distance from the coast and the need to launch from the boat. These incredible swell conditions, and its many other assets make Caledonia one of the most magical kitesurfing spots.
