Anyone kite the Maldives in may?
Am heading there in May on a surf trip but am considering throwing in a kite in case the wind fills in. 8m or 10m bws noise? Any advice appreciated.

Hey mate,
I kited over there in 2007 I was working there for 6 months, from April to September, yes you can get some wind...its light but occasionally it comes up and its pretty good. Only kited in the lagoons, but watched a couple of guys wash up on the left hander Honkys trying to kite in far too light conditions...
My opinion surf surf and take a kite and maybe you'll get lucky...
Enjoy its water world over there...looking forward to the day I go back :)

Thanks guys, didn't end up taking kites due to luggage weight. Murphy's law - it blew over 13 knots for 5 days out of 8 and the swell was 0.5ft till the last two days where it can up to 2ft. Rule of thumb - one less board add take a kite ever time.
