Le Port

Le Port is located on the northwest coast of Réunion Island, facing a protected bay with mixed water conditions. The spot features a shallow lagoon system adjacent to industrial port facilities, creating a constrained kitesurfing area. The coastline orientation (NE-SW) and surrounding geography suggest this is primarily a sheltered bay environment with limited fetch. Wind reliability is notably low at 1.5%, making consistent sessions rare. Average wave heights of 1.41m indicate modest swell exposure. This spot suits beginners due to shallow water depth and protected conditions, though the proximity to active port operations and industrial infrastructure presents navigation challenges. Best conditions occur with southeasterly winds providing side-shore orientation. Kiters should exercise caution regarding vessel traffic, understand local regulations within port boundaries, and be aware of changing water conditions near the lagoon entrance. The spot's viability depends heavily on seasonal wind patterns and port activity schedules.
