About This Spot
La Azohía is a sheltered bay located on Spain's southeastern Mediterranean coast in Murcia region. The spot features a northwest-facing shoreline that opens to a semi-enclosed water body with moderate fetch. The bay is characterized by shallow, light-swell conditions typical of protected Mediterranean waters. Residential development and port infrastructure line portions of the coast, with rocky terrain visible to the south. The 5.8-knot average wind and 5.5% reliability indicate marginal and inconsistent conditions, suggesting this is a spot for light-wind sessions rather than strong-wind kitesurfing. Best conditions occur with northeasterly winds that provide side-shore flow parallel to the coastline. The shallow, protected nature and moderate hazards make this suitable for beginner to early-intermediate kiters seeking flat-water practice. Water temperatures around 20°C are moderate. Low wind consistency and limited fetch restrict progression potential, making this primarily a light-wind training location rather than a destination spot.
Hazards & Safety
Rocky outcrops along southern coastline
Shallow water near shore
Residential and industrial infrastructure near water
Limited fetch distance due to bay geometry
Potential boat traffic from nearby port facilities
