Wind? Yes
Flat? Not neccessarily, though I here it is in the summer.
Shallow? No.
The bay (inside) area is flatter than the reef, the reef kicks up some awsomely
beautiful waves. ;)

> 2) the studios in l'Albatros (the cheapest VELA accomodation)
Highly recomended, a little off on the quieter west side of town.
Liked it.

> 3) VELA's rental equipment
Top notch, best in cabarete. Even more so, their instruction was excellent
when I was there - free clinics every day, before noon.
