Takara Beach

Takara Beach is located on the eastern coast of Vanuatu, facing directly east toward the open Pacific Ocean. The spot features a sandy beach backed by dense tropical vegetation with a wide, shallow lagoon system visible in satellite imagery. The nearshore zone shows extensive reef structures and channels, typical of South Pacific island geography. Water discoloration patterns indicate variable bathymetry and potential current flows. With only 11.2% wind reliability and average winds of 7.6 knots, conditions are marginal and inconsistent. The spot requires north or south wind orientation for side-shore conditions. Wave heights average 0.92m, suggesting this is primarily a light-wind, flat-water lagoon spot rather than a wave-riding destination. The rough-chop water type indicates choppy conditions from wave refraction over reefs. Intermediate kiters with experience in reef navigation and light-wind riding would find this spot suitable during favorable wind windows. Low wind days dominate, making this more appealing for flat-water freestyle than wave riding. The extensive reef system demands careful route planning and knowledge of channel positions.
