About This Spot
Anomabo Beach is a west-facing coastal break located on Ghana's central coast, characterized by a sandy beach fronting agricultural land and residential development. The water body is the Atlantic Ocean with light swell and extremely poor wind conditions. This location presents significant limitations for kitesurfing: the 0.1% wind reliability indicates winds are rarely suitable for the sport, making sessions virtually impossible to plan. Average wind speeds of 5.1 knots are below the typical 12-knot minimum needed for kitesurfing. Wave heights averaging 0.74m are minimal and unsuitable for skill progression. The developed coastal zone suggests potential access and crowding concerns. Best conditions would require northerly winds (0° from true north) for side-shore alignment, but such winds are extremely rare. This spot is not recommended for dedicated kitesurfing practice due to unreliable conditions, though it may occasionally work during seasonal wind shifts or rare weather systems. Local knowledge regarding seasonal wind patterns would be essential before attempting sessions.
Hazards & Safety
Very low wind reliability (0.1%) - unsuitable for consistent kitesurfing
Minimal wave height (0.74m average) - insufficient for progression
Shallow nearshore areas visible in satellite imagery
Residential and developed coastal zone - potential crowd and access issues
Light swell conditions suggest limited fetch from Atlantic swells
