About this spot
The Unplug directory lists the East Beaches of Ilha de Luanda — the sand spit across the bay from central Luanda — as flat-to-chop water suitable for any level, about 5 km from the airport.
Duk kite Angola, the nearest listed school, teaches here: its offering covers a Beginner Pack, coaching sessions and equipment rental, booked through the Unplug listing.
Sources disagree on the wind season: the Unplug listing gives October–April with north-easterly to easterly winds, while spots.guru calls the May–September dry season (locally the Cacimbo) the stronger, more consistent wind period. Ask the school which window is currently working.

Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from the Unplug kitesurf directory (Luanda spot pages and the Duk kite Angola school listing), Kiteforum's Ilha do Mussulo spot page, spots.guru's Angola country page, Windy.app's Cabo Ledo statistics and Plizio's Cabo Ledo guide. No published GPS coordinates for the Ilha de Luanda or Mussulo launches — pins are approximate. Wind-season months conflict between sources (October–April per Kiteforum/Unplug; May–September dry-season trades per spots.guru) — confirm with the school. Duk kite Angola is an independently operating local school; no IKO affiliation confirmed. Needs local verification.
