Playa Grande is a developed urban beach in Mar del Plata, Argentina, characterized by a northeast-facing coastline where land meets the Atlantic Ocean. The spot features both an open ocean area and an enclosed lagoon system separated by breakwater structures and piers, creating variable water conditions. The beach break offers relatively protected conditions in the lagoon during onshore winds, while the open ocean section provides more exposure. Wind reliability is notably low at 10.1%, making consistency a challenge. Average wave heights of 1.27m indicate modest swell energy. The spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking calm-water sessions, particularly in the lagoon area during northwest winds. However, the urban setting with visible infrastructure, parking areas, and pedestrian access requires awareness of beach congestion and hazards. Water temperatures average 14.6°C, necessitating suitable thermal protection. The location is best suited for light-wind practice rather than high-wind sessions due to wave limitations and crowded beach conditions.
