Like most surf spots in the Med, it's very dependant on the weather especially the wind and if there has been a recent storm or not.
There is basically nothing worthwhile here in the summer, but worthwhile having a look in the Winter for surfing / surf kayaking if you are visiting the island for other purposes.
The beach is something like 3km long, so there is enough space for surfers to mix with kite surfers.
