i went last July and was on my 5/6m most of the time in the waves . def take some small kites

I've been there twice and the first time had some really windy days 30kts + at Le morne. Second time needed by 11 and 9 50/50. Le morne is THE spot by the way. Loads flat water and DTL waves at One eye and manoa. Read previous posts by searching this forum. Can look tame enough in the tropical sun but in fact this is a very Sketchy spot. Never seen it flat and when the swell is up the reef pass sucks you straight out to sea wherever you fall. Next stop Reunion. They have LOST and I mean LOST several windsurfers over the years never to be seen again.

Kite with a buddy who is good at towing and always let the rescue guys at the Indian resort know that you are going out. One aussie guy who goes every year tells me her carries his mobile in a waterproof bag as the waves, Manoa especially, are a long way out.

The resorts at le Morne are great if you have the money, if you are on a budget you can get apartments in La Goulet, a small village 5-10minutes from the beach. You will need a car but from memory we paid $200 for the car for 10 days and $500 for the apartment. I just googled private rentals and came up with a few. You will need to negotiate the price to get a good deal. Very much an Island of haves and have not, but the kiting is A+. Have fun.

Give Mike a call at Kite Thrills on the sunny coast - he runs tours and knows it inside out.

I'll second Ryland on the place to stay.. It was one of the nicest views and had the nicest host I've ever met. He'll take care of all the details for you and is really helpful for anything else you might need.. It was like being put up by a close mate.. Here's the view from our apartment.

Yeww I'll be there around august next year will be insane
