About this spot
Kiteforum.com describes very flat water with one point of breaking waves outside, a 450 m sandy beach with enough room to launch, rocky breakwaters, and wind of 15–22 knots at least 2–3 days a week, normally sideshore. Walking further south makes north-westerlies sideshore too.
Water about 25 °C, air 25–32 °C, season all year. Boats leave from several points in Lagos (about 500 naira, foreigners often charged more).
