About this spot
Capusan Beach is Cuyo Island’s main kite spot with a sandbar, shallow cross-onshore riding on one side and a deeper, flatter but offshore-wind area toward the town pier. Beginners should remain in the supervised cross-onshore zone; the pier side is for competent riders with rescue planning.
Conditions and local access rules may change. Always check current signage, forecasts and official local guidance before kitesurfing.
