More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The lagoon opens before you like a shallow mirror; wind threads across the surface and the sandbars create long, safe ribbons of water where kites and sails catch steady north blows. You rig on soft sand, step into thigh-deep water and feel the wind's push — predictable, forgiving, ideal for first jumps and long carving runs.
