No month stands out

Good kitesurf days in a typical week, each month, from 2016 on (ERA5 history scored the same way).

Tap a month to see this spot for a trip then.

Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Cloudbreak

Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces W, so wind from the E blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 28°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing W. Wind from the W blows onshore, wind from the E blows out to sea, and wind from the N or S runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea is about 26°C in August, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in January, its warmest (no wetsuit). No town nearby. Momi, 11 km away, is the nearest town we list; we have not checked places to stay there. Nearest beds: Nadi, 24 km (about 45 min by car). Nearest airport: Nadi International Airport (NAN), 27 km. Within 5 km we also list 6 surf spots.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
