Overview

Edit

Lalezit Bay, especially in the northern beach, Bisht Palla, is a perfect terrain for beginners, because it is shallow and the wind almost always blows in the right direction constantly.

Free parking & Free entrance.

It is your responsibility to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!

Wind

Heads up: this is a partly thermal spot: on sunny days a thermal adds to the wind, so it's usually stronger than the averages below show. The windy days include part of our modelled thermal days, as some of them turn a light day into a windy one or even bring sufficient wind. The average wind speeds don't include the thermal.
