Almost year round sunshine, safe waters and reliable winds make Langebaan paradise for water sports lovers – particularly kite surfers, wind surfers, kayakers, yachtsmen, water skiers and fishermen. The tidal mud flats of the lagoon also attract thousands of migratory birds every year, and resident species are prolific and include greater and lesser flamingoes.

The park is most busy during the spring flower season (August to September) when the wild flowers are in bloom. Whales can be spotted during October and November. Club Mykonos Resort hosts a number of annual events, festivals and exhibitions.
