Le Mourouk on Rodrigues

Article
After a few days, we check in at the LeMourouk Hotel, which is directly overlooking the kiting spot. Kiting in the lagoon is the best of kiting we have seen so far: turquoise water, steady winds and hardly any kiters in the water.

He goes surfing everyday possible and then goes kiting later in the afternoon. He is the one waiting
