Dadaepo Beach

Water is shallow a long way out. This spot has small chop and wind-generated waves that roll into the beach. The river mouth has many sand bars yet to be explored for kiting. The beach is extremely spacious and safe for launching. Perfect place to kite buggy or landboard. The beach is located at the mouth of the Nakdong River, which makes for very fine sand and silt. Southeast Korea has three main wind directions - SW (usually spring through fall, but very light in the summer); NE (usually spring and fall); NW (usually winter). This beach works well with S, SW, and NW (also N and W) winds. The winter NW winds are the strongest winds and should be ridden right at the river mouth between the main beach and the sand bars. Bring big kites for S/SW winds: 14 to 20 sqm; smaller for NW winds: 10 to 16 sqm. Due to the shape of the beach and the many sand bars, one can find side and side/onshore riding areas at different locations around the spot. Wetsuit is required from mid-October until early-May. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave. Features: Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
