About this spot

Kiteforum's Ilha do Mussulo — Point of Mussulo page describes a sand-beach launch on the spit's northern point with clean water and waves from small through medium to big, up to about 4 m — a spot for intermediate and expert riders.

The prevailing winds are usually north-easterly and easterly, with the season given as October through April; spots.guru again names the May–September dry-season trades as peak — note both windows.

There is no road access: fly to Luanda, drive to the Capo Soka marina and cross the Mussulo Bay entrance by boat, roughly 1 km, where strong currents are noted. Duk kite Angola in Luanda, about 10 km away, is the nearest listed school.

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.
