About This Spot
Ravni is a protected bay located on the Adriatic coast of Croatia, characterized by dense forest coverage and a deeply indented shoreline. The spot features relatively sheltered waters with a rocky coastline and shallow approach zones. Water conditions are typically flat to very small, making this suitable for progression rather than wave riding. Wind reliability is extremely low at 6.1%, suggesting this location is heavily influenced by surrounding topography and forests that obstruct and redirect wind flow. The bay's configuration provides side-shore conditions primarily from northwesterly winds (315°). The shallow bay waters and rocky features indicate this spot is best suited for beginners practicing fundamentals in controlled conditions rather than riding waves. Kiters should expect very light and inconsistent wind, making sessions dependent on specific weather patterns. The proximity to residential areas and shallow depths require careful spot selection and awareness of other water users. Best conditions occur during rare strong wind events when the bay receives adequate wind penetration.
Hazards & Safety
Shallow water areas near shore
Rocky outcrops visible along coastline
Scattered residential structures and potential boat traffic
Limited fetch distance due to bay configuration
Forested terrain creating wind shadow effects
