The sea is shallow for 250m and the bottom is purely sand. For the first 50m the water is completely free of waves and calm. Small waves occur after 50m depending on the wind's power. A few spots in the bay (where the creek reaches the sea) are good for surfing. Mostly kayaks go there for playing. No jet-skis or other motor things (all forbidden except safety boat). 2 different areas for beginners and professionals. The whole kite beach consists of very big kite school buildings, restaurant/bar and a hotel, which are max 25-30 m away from the sea. More than 150 days guaranteed onshore wind during season which starts at 11 am and usually slows down after 5 pm. It blows mostly 4-5 Bft. Just a few days (10 maybe) it blows offshore and these days it is impossible to surf because of rapidly changing wind direction. There are hardly any gusty winds in Gokova Bay. The increase of the wind rate throughout the day allows for different levels to practice at different times. 6 months everyday: 9-12 with 12-17 knots, 12-15 with 15-25 knots and 15-17 with 12-17 knots. Onshore to sideonshore winds. Season is April to October. Average temperature is during day time 28°C. Water is 24°C after June till October. No wetsuits. Weather is very hot the last two weeks of July and first 2 weeks of August (35-40°C). But nights are always cool. Water: Shallow, Flat, Chop, Smallwave. Features: Rooms, Camping, School, Shop, Repair, Rental, Rescue, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
