About This Spot
Hotel Cavanna is located on the Spanish Mediterranean coast near Guardamar del Segura, featuring a shallow lagoon system protected by breakwaters and jetties. The spot consists of a sheltered lagoon with sandy bottom and varying depths, separated from open ocean by constructed barriers. The eastward-facing coastline creates a natural harbor environment with light-swell conditions typical of Mediterranean lagoons. Wind reliability is low at 13.4%, and average wind speeds of 7.8 knots suggest marginal conditions requiring patience and ideal wind timing. The shallow lagoon environment with marina infrastructure makes this suitable for beginners and intermediate riders seeking protected, flat-water practice conditions. Kiters should be aware of recreational beach traffic, boat activity in the marina, and the proximity of jetties. Tidal fluctuations may affect water depth and current patterns. The lagoon's enclosed nature limits wave development, making this primarily a flatwater spot rather than a swell destination. Best conditions occur when northerly winds coincide with calm Mediterranean periods.
Hazards & Safety
