Typical December conditions
December is one of the two most reliable months for wind in Langebaan. The south-easter typically fills in from late morning and blows strongest through the afternoon, often 20-30 knots, so smaller kites get plenty of use. The South African school holidays run from mid-December into January, so the beach, restaurants and the lagoon are at their busiest, and accommodation books up early.
