Horseshoe Bay

Bermuda's main kite wave spot, needing a direct S to SE onshore wind; best at mid to high tide. Only four or five kiters fit, there are rocky cliffs on both sides and surfers share the waves. Very busy with swimmers and cruise visitors in summer, so ride it in spring, autumn or winter.
