It's not a spot for beginners or intermediate kiters. You have to be very confident and skilled to kite there. Dropping the kite once can mean you will be taken out to the ocean with only high cliffs, no chance for rescue. Surfers have to be respected if you don't want problems. Low tide is the time to go, high tide is even more difficult.
