Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 6 years of historical weather data.
Partially sheltered coastline with moderate, varied conditions
Chunjangdae Beach is located on South Korea's west coast, facing a semi-enclosed bay with moderate wave exposure. The spot features a sandy beach backed by residential and commercial development, with rocky headlands forming natural breakwaters at both ends. The bay configuration provides some wave protection while allowing wind flow. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (0°), which provide side-shore orientation parallel to the beach. The low average wind reliability (33%) and modest wave heights (0.43m) indicate this is primarily a light-wind, sheltered spot. Water temperatures average 13.6°C, requiring thermal protection. The narrow beach and surrounding development make this suitable for beginners to early intermediates seeking calmer conditions and easy beach access. Kiters should be aware of shallow sandbars, boat traffic from the developed area, and the need for consistent wind. This spot works best during winter months when northerly winds are more frequent, though overall wind consistency remains moderate.
