About This Spot
Lido Kitebeach is a protected lagoon setting adjacent to the Venetian Lagoon in northern Italy. The spot faces south into relatively enclosed water, with residential developments and industrial facilities lining the western shore. The lagoon environment creates extremely flat water conditions with minimal wave development, making this location unsuitable for wave riding but potentially suitable for freestyle and light wind sessions. The shallow, protected water and small fetch distance limit wind resource development. With documented average wind reliability of only 5.0% and 6.2 knots average wind speed, this spot experiences very light and inconsistent wind conditions. The narrow passage and breakwater structures constrain safe launch and landing areas. Visibility of residential zones and boat traffic indicates moderate human activity. This location suits beginner and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water practice in protected conditions during rare stronger wind windows. Kiters should expect long periods of marginal wind and plan sessions around local weather systems that bring stronger breeze. The shallow water provides safety benefits but requires awareness of depth limitations.
