Littlestone

Littlestone is a beach break located on the south coast of England facing east toward the English Channel. The spot features a sandy beach with shallow water extending considerable distance offshore, creating a gradual slope typical of this region. Water conditions are characteristically choppy rather than well-formed, driven by local wind patterns and fetch limitations. The 0.74m average wave height indicates this is primarily a wind-dependent spot relying on kite power rather than natural swell. With only 30.6% wind reliability, sessions are inconsistent. North winds provide optimal side-shore conditions, though southerly winds are also viable. The low wind average of 10.3 knots suggests this spot works best during stronger wind events. Littlestone suits beginners and intermediate kiters due to flat water and gradual bathymetry, though the shallow conditions require awareness of depth changes and soft sand characteristics. The proximity to residential development may limit access and require checking local regulations before visiting.
