"The location is absolutely amazing, making it the best beach on the entire island. It's a must-visit for anyone in Santa Maria. Plus, the beach isn't overcrowded, which is a bonus."

"I've been to Sal multiple times, but I had never been to Kite Beach until now. It was truly breathtaking. I heard that the consistent winds here make it a safer spot for novice kite surfers, although everyone I saw seemed quite skilled to me!"
