El Yaque is a protected lagoon system on Margarita Island, Venezuela, characterized by shallow, sheltered water enclosed by forested shorelines and reef formations. The lagoon configuration provides natural wind channeling from the northeast, with the coastline oriented northwest-southeast. The spot features relatively consistent trade wind exposure despite moderate average wind speeds of 8.3 knots and low reliability (8.9%), suggesting seasonal consistency rather than daily consistency. Water conditions are choppy but manageable, with minimal wave height (0.51m average) making this suitable for progression rather than wave riding. Best wind direction is northeast (45°), which provides side-shore conditions along the main beach access. Visible rocky outcrops and shallow reefs require local knowledge for safe navigation. The sheltered lagoon setting and shallow water make this appropriate for beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking flat-water conditions and limited swell exposure. Water temperature averages 28°C year-round. Key considerations include respecting shallow reef areas, understanding tidal variations affecting water depth, and checking seasonal wind patterns before visiting.
