Cala Martina

Cala Martina is a small sheltered bay on the eastern coast of Ibiza, Spain, facing westward into the Mediterranean. The spot features a protected cove with rocky formations and shallow reef areas that characterize much of the Balearic coastline. Water conditions are generally calm with small average swell (0.71m), making this suitable primarily for light-wind sessions. The bay's westward orientation means northerly winds provide optimal side-shore conditions for kitesurfing. However, this location suffers from very low wind reliability (6.1%), making consistent sessions difficult. Best conditions occur during winter months when Mediterranean winds are more active. The spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking protected waters, though the rocky substrate and shallow areas require careful navigation. Residential development surrounding the bay may restrict access and impose local regulations. The diminutive fetch within the bay limits wave development, keeping conditions generally flat. Kiters should be aware of local maritime traffic and respect private property boundaries.
