Beach and Tide Conditions
Kitesurfing conditions do not depend on Tide on this spot.
Moriah Cay (Exumas), Bahamas is a Shallow, Flat, Chop and Small waves spot.
The launching/landing area is reported to be of Medium size.
Around the complete bay a very nice, soft sandy beach. Lots of space, normally few to no people around. The west part of the bay is the `Man of War Cay`, the east part the `Moriah Cay`. The point at the Moriah Cay offers the most space, big sandy area.
Great playground for kitesurfers. Wherever the wind blows offshore, the water is flat. In the middle of the bay, nice 0.5-1m waves roll in the bay for quiet a long way, so excellent for wave beginners to get several tacks. The complete bay is shallow. Perfect for beginners. Just paradise like colors, green and crystal clear water. Nice flat water, fun for speed runs and extremely flat at the point, east of the channel, which leads to another bay behind the cays. Here you will find another playground with shallow and flat/choppy water. Expect some current in the channel. Very safe riding in the big bay.
