About This Spot
Bullji is a sheltered lagoon spot located on Latvia's coastline, characterized by very shallow water and extensive reed and vegetation growth. The lagoon offers protected conditions suitable for beginners due to limited wave action and choppy water patterns. Wind reliability is notably poor at 15.6%, making consistent sessions challenging. The spot features a soft muddy bottom that provides safe landing conditions but limits maneuverability. Best conditions occur with northeast winds (45°), which provide side-shore alignment to the northwest-facing shore. Water temperatures average 8.8°C, requiring thermal protection. The spot suits beginners and early intermediate kiters seeking calm, forgiving conditions with minimal wave impact. Key considerations include the shallow lagoon environment requiring careful navigation around vegetation, the low wind reliability necessitating patience between sessions, and the narrow usable area constrained by shore infrastructure. The sheltered nature makes this unsuitable for progression-focused kiters seeking challenging waves or strong consistent winds.
