Kitesurfing at Le Morne
One of the world's great kitesurf spots: a huge flat lagoon for lessons, and the legendary 'One Eye' reef wave for experts.
The trade winds blow steadily across the Le Morne lagoon for most of the year, making it one of the best kitesurfing spots on the planet. Inside the reef, the 'Kite Lagoon' is shallow and flat: ideal for lessons. On the reef, the famous 'One Eye' and 'Manawa' waves are for experts only.
Several IKO-certified schools offer taster sessions, private lessons and equipment rental.
- Flat, shallow lagoon for learning
- World-famous reef waves
- Le Morne Brabant as a backdrop
