Wingfoil spot Pointe Marin in Baie du Marin, Le Marin, Martinique

The Hameau de la Baie du Golf is a quiet sheltered cove near Le Marin in southern Martinique, tucked inside the broad natural bay that Madinina Kitesurf uses as its wingfoil training ground. Consistent northeast trade winds run across warm flat shallow water for most of the year. The surrounding hillside and marina funnel the breeze and keep it steady throughout the afternoon window. Gentler than Cap Chevalier — a smart step-up from beginner to intermediate.

Best months: November, December, January, February, March, April, May, June, July
