Datca Ferry Port sits on Turkey's southwestern Aegean coast along the Datça Peninsula. The coastline faces west toward open Mediterranean waters, with agricultural plains and forested hills rising inland. This beach break features a sandy to pebbly shore backed by cultivated fields, offering relatively protected conditions compared to exposed Mediterranean spots.
The spot's primary constraint is its location within an active ferry port zone, creating significant boat traffic and restricted access areas. Wind reliability is very low at 6.8%, typical for sheltered Mediterranean locations. Average winds of 6.4 knots are marginal for kitesurfing, requiring consistent north wind (side-shore) to generate usable conditions. Wave heights average only 0.40m under normal conditions.
Best conditions occur with northerly winds pushing across the peninsula. The choppy water character suggests wind-driven chop rather than organized swell. This spot suits beginners during rare strong wind days, but hazards including port operations, rocky formations to the north, and inconsistent wind make it unsuitable as a primary kiting destination. Local knowledge of ferry schedules and port regulations is essential.
