Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 4 years of historical weather data.
Protected shallow water, typically flat and ideal for learning or freestyle
Baby Beach is a protected lagoon located on the northern coast of Aruba, Netherlands Antilles. The spot comprises a shallow, enclosed body of water separated from open ocean by a sandy barrier, creating ideal conditions for beginner and intermediate riders. The northwestern orientation of the coastline creates a natural basin with residential development and airport infrastructure to the east. The lagoon's shallow depth (averaging 1-2 meters) and enclosed nature provide protection from heavy swell but limit wind fetch. With average wind speeds of 13.8 knots and 74.1% reliability, conditions are relatively consistent. The side-shore northeast wind (45°) is ideal for safe kitesurfing in this configuration. This spot suits beginners and early intermediate kiters seeking shallow, protected water with manageable conditions. Key considerations include monitoring tide levels, staying clear of vegetation and shallow areas, respecting residential zones, and remaining aware of airport proximity. The rough-chop water type indicates regular wave activity despite the lagoon setting.
