Overview

Another Uruguayan lagoon where you’ll most likely have it all for yourself. Flatwater area inside the lagoon, you can get some waves on the ocean’s side, but not every day.

Dangers

Some areas are not easy to access.

It is your responsability 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!
