Rak is a sheltered lagoon spot located on the northeastern coast of the United Arab Emirates, protected by breakwater structures and seawalls. The lagoon formation provides enclosed water conditions with minimal wave development. The spot faces northwest, making northeast winds (45°) the optimal side-shore direction for kitesurfing. Water depths appear generally shallow throughout the lagoon, limiting wave potential but providing safety margin for beginner progression. The area shows evidence of aquaculture operations and coastal development, indicating potential water quality variability. Limited fetch distance means conditions remain small, typically under 0.5m waves. This spot is most suitable for beginners and light-wind specialists seeking calm, protected conditions for progression work. Key considerations include navigating around fixed structures, monitoring water quality, and accounting for the extremely low wind reliability (1.8%) typical for this region. Best approached during seasonal wind windows or specific weather patterns that deliver sustained northeast flow.
