Would You Kite Here? (Oman's Butter Flat Harbour)
Get High with Mike - Advanced Kitesurf Coaching just posted a look at a spot on Masirah Island in Oman that features butter flat water and a harbor wall that provides lift on takeoff. The clip asks the question Would You Kite Here? while weighing the benefits of an empty location against potential drawbacks. The footage covers the local fishing boats, what kite sizes to pack for a trip, and why this specific spot requires a high level of riding ability.
Mike explains the frequency of the wind and his history with the island dating back to 2019, while also mentioning other spots further south. The video highlights Rose Hourtoulle as the rider of the episode and mentions Jamal, who runs guided trips in the area. It covers the specific deal breaker that might keep people away from this harbor despite the flat water conditions.
