Sant Tomàs

Sant Tomàs is a sheltered bay located on the eastern coast of Mallorca, Spain, opening toward the southeast. The spot features a gently sloping sandy bottom with shallow water extending well offshore, protected by surrounding forest and agricultural land. The bay receives minimal direct ocean swell, making it a flat-water to small-wave environment suitable for learners and light-wind practitioners. This location offers protection from strong offshore wind and hazardous conditions typical of exposed coastlines. Best conditions occur with easterly to northeasterly winds (75° orientation), which blow side-shore parallel to the coast. The extremely low wind reliability (8.1%) and modest average wind speed (6.8 knots) indicate this is primarily suitable for light-wind sessions and progression work rather than advanced freestyle or wave riding. The shallow bay bottom, visible sandbars, and rocky features require careful local knowledge. Residential areas on the eastern shore and agricultural development inland limit access options. This spot suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking calm, protected water with manageable conditions, though consistent wind is not guaranteed.
