Kazhit

Kazhit is a sheltered bay located on Oman's Arabian Sea coast, characterized by a sandy beach backed by salt flats and sparse desert vegetation. The water presents a lagoon-like environment with shallow areas, rocky features, and tidal channels visible from satellite imagery. The coastline faces west toward the water, making northerly winds (from the desert interior) the primary side-shore option for kitesurfing. This spot features consistently light conditions with 1.10m average waves and modest wind resources averaging 10.4 knots. Wind reliability is moderate at 35.2%, indicating variable conditions. The shallow bay and enclosed nature create relatively protected waters suitable for beginners, though the inconsistent wind makes sessions unpredictable. Water temperatures average 26.8°C, remaining warm year-round. The spot suits beginner to early-intermediate kiters seeking sheltered practice conditions. Key considerations include monitoring tidal movements affecting water depth, avoiding rocky hazards within the bay, and timing sessions for favorable wind windows. Limited wave action means this location prioritizes freestyle and light-wind technique development over wave riding.
