Water depth ranges from 0.5-2 meters, depending on tide. The water is quite flat due to the bay and breakwaters. Sandy beach, quite long, but only about 30 meters wide. There are power lines about 50 meters from water for length of beach. Lava rock formations are present at each end of the beach, so kiters must stay well upwind and away from these obstacles. Cheju Island is known around Korea as being a windy place. It's best winds are during the fall and spring seasons (typically NW or NE winds, sometimes SW) with winds ranging from 15 to 30 knots - many days (maybe 2 or 3 days a week). Summer winds are lighter 10 to 18 knots (mostly from the SW), but only place in summer for wind in all of Korea. Sinyang Beach works best on South winds (souths are strongest here). Cheju island has four distinct seasons. Highs around 33°C in summer and lows around 1°C in winter. Wetsuit is required from October until May. Too cold for kiting in January and February. Water: Flat, Chop. Features: Shop, Shower, Toilet, Parking. Rider ability: Intermediate, Expert.
