Kefaloz Koyu

Kefaloz Koyu is a small bay on Turkey's northern Aegean coast, characterized by shallow turquoise waters protected by surrounding land. The spot faces northeast toward the water, with agricultural fields dominating the inland area and residential development along the upper coast. The bay's shallow depth and enclosed nature make it suitable for beginners and intermediate kiters seeking calm, controlled conditions. Best wind direction is northwest (315°), providing reliable side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. The low average wind speed (10.1 knots) and modest wave height (0.57m) indicate this spot offers light-wind sessions rather than high-energy riding. Wind reliability at 32.4% suggests sessions are inconsistent, requiring careful weather monitoring. Visible shallow areas and rocky features require cautious navigation. The protected bay environment minimizes fetch distance, keeping conditions manageable but potentially limiting wave development. This spot suits kiters prioritizing safety and smooth water over challenging conditions, with optimal sessions occurring during spring and autumn wind patterns.
