About This Spot
Kahuna Surfhouse is located on Cyprus's southwestern coastline facing northeast into a shallow bay with light-swell conditions. The area is characterized by agricultural land with irrigation infrastructure, transitioning to a gently sloping sandy beach. The spot suits beginners due to minimal wave height and protected bay conditions, though this same characteristic limits development for intermediate riders. Best conditions occur with northeasterly or easterly winds providing side-shore approach. Wind reliability is notably low at 2.5%, making this primarily a summer destination dependent on thermal and occasional pressure-system winds. Water temperatures average 21.2°C, comfortable for extended sessions. The shallow, flat-water conditions are ideal for learning basic kitesurfing techniques and maneuvers without wave interference. Kiters should note the limited wind consistency and plan sessions accordingly. Proximity to agricultural areas may affect water quality during certain seasons. The relatively undeveloped coastline offers solitude but fewer amenities for support.
Hazards & Safety
Irrigation canal infrastructure inland
Shallow water and sandy bottom near shore
Low wind reliability (2.5%) - spot may lack consistent conditions
Small wave height (0.46m average) limits progression
Potential agricultural runoff affecting water clarity
Sparse residential development near shore - limited rescue infrastructure
