Located in the north east of Mauritius with spectacular beaches and coves, enclosed by a reef and a choice of luxury and all inclusive hotels. Protected by the reef with side shore wind Anse La Raie is ideal for beginners and experts alike with uncrowded conditions.
Sailing Spot and Conditions
The majority of the coastline on the north east coast is fringed by a reef approximately 2.5km offshore, creating a vast lagoon ideal for kitesurfing and flat water windsurfing. It is ideal for learning to windsurf or kitesurf with the sheltered conditions and wind side shore from the right. Anse Le Raie, where the centre is based, is set in a 300m wide cove, with mostly knee deep, shallow water with sand. Kitesurf lessons are support by shuttle training boats to get you to the best spot in the lagoon, with plenty of space and optimum conditions. Independent kitesurfers booked in at our centre are provided with a beach service, assisting launch, landing and providing rescue support. Regular downwinders are organised with support boat.
