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
Nordisqui Sandbar is a shallow lagoon spot located off the Venezuelan coast, characterized by multiple sandbars, shallow banks, and small islands visible in the satellite imagery. The protected lagoon environment creates a contained riding area with variable water conditions. The spot experiences consistent trade wind patterns with 77% reliability and average winds of 13.9 knots, making it suitable for lighter wind days. Water temperatures average 27.3°C year-round. The rough-chop conditions indicate wind-generated surface texture rather than organized swell. This spot is best suited for beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking flat-water progression in a protected environment. The shallow depths and numerous obstacles require careful navigation and local knowledge of sandbar positions. Northwest winds provide optimal side-shore conditions. Riders should account for the lagoon's limited fetch and resulting chop, avoid the shallow banks marked by lighter coloration, and be aware of tidal influences affecting water depth across the sandbars.
