North Point Alaçati

North Point in Alaçati is a shallow bay on Turkey's Aegean coast, characterized by turquoise, choppy water protected by surrounding terrain. The bay faces northwest into the Aegean, with a narrow entrance and gradually shelving sandy/rocky bottom. The spot benefits from consistent Etesian winds that funnel through the bay during summer months. Water conditions are typically choppy rather than well-formed due to the enclosed bay geometry and shallow depth. The narrow coastline and visible road suggest limited development, making this a relatively uncrowded location. Best conditions occur with northeast to east winds that provide side-shore to side-onshore angles. The shallow, protected waters and modest wave heights make this suitable primarily for beginners and early-intermediate riders. Strong tidal currents and shallow areas require local knowledge. Wind reliability remains low at 14%, indicating seasonal variability. Water temperature around 19°C suggests spring or autumn conditions. This spot works best during the Etesian wind season when consistent thermal winds develop across the Aegean region.
