Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Kiting is allowed all year in the two permanent kite zones at Les Dosses; from 15 October to 31 December, riding on the étang is banned from one hour after sunset until 5 am. Outside kite zones and kite lanes, a 5-knot speed limit applies within 300 m of the shoreline. Source: PREMAR 133/2025 art. 2 and 5, AM Le Barcarès A93/2021.
The open water at Le Barcarès (Les Dosses) faces ENE (70°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are north, northeast, east and southeast (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the south and northwest, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the southwest and west, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
