Santa Domingo

Santa Domingo is a shallow bay situated on Peru's central coast near Callao, characterized by extensive mudflats and tidal channels. The sheltered water body is bounded by sandy beaches on the south and west, with industrial port facilities visible to the north. The bay's shallow nature and visible current patterns indicate strong tidal influence typical of this coastal region. Wind reliability is extremely low at 0.3%, making consistent conditions rare. Wave heights average only 1.5m, suggesting this is primarily a flatwater or very small-wave spot. The protected bay setting offers calm conditions suitable for beginners during rare wind windows, but the shallow depths and tidal complexity require careful route planning. Best conditions occur with easterly winds providing side-shore flow. This spot suits kite learners seeking shallow-water practice areas, though the unreliable wind and minimal wave development mean consistent sessions are unlikely. Water temperature around 20°C requires minimal thermal protection.
