Ordu Beach

Ordu Beach is situated on the Black Sea coast of northern Turkey, facing north toward open water. The spot is characterized by a sheltered bay configuration with developed beachfront backed by dense residential areas. The presence of man-made structures including breakwaters, piers, and harbor facilities indicates a semi-protected setting typical of urban beach parks. Water conditions show minimal swell (0.46m average) and light winds (3.4 knots average), suggesting a relatively protected environment. The coastline orientation facing north makes east or west winds side-shore appropriate. Best wind direction is easterly (90°) for consistent side-shore conditions. This spot suits beginners to intermediate kiters due to calm water conditions and shallow depths near shore. The urban setting provides amenities but may create wind turbulence. Water quality should be verified given the extensive surrounding development. Wind reliability of 0.0% indicates this is primarily a marginal wind location, making it suitable only when weather systems bring stronger conditions to the region.
