Shallow reef creating wave breaks, suited for experienced riders
Cicia is a reef-break spot located off the northeastern coast of a Fijian island, characterized by an extensive shallow lagoon system with exposed coral formations. The coastline faces northwest toward the open ocean, with a dramatic transition from turquoise shallow water to deep blue offshore waters. The spot features a traditional tropical atoll environment with dense coral structures creating multiple reef breaks across the lagoon. The relatively low wind reliability (33.6%) and modest average wind speed (10.3 knots) suggest this location experiences inconsistent thermal and trade wind patterns. Wave heights average 1.45m, indicating this is primarily a light-wind, small-wave venue. Best conditions occur with northeast to east winds that provide side-shore to side-onshore approaches. The shallow reef environment demands experienced navigation skills and local knowledge of tidal patterns and current flows. Rough water conditions indicate active current systems through the reef passages. This spot suits intermediate to advanced kiters comfortable reading reef conditions and managing shallow-water hazards. Low wind reliability makes consistent sessions challenging.
