About This Spot
Son Serra de Marina is a beach break located on the northeastern coast of Mallorca, Spain, facing northeast toward the Mediterranean. The spot features a developed residential area directly behind the beach, with dense forest covering the inland terrain. The beach itself is relatively narrow with moderate wave exposure and light swell conditions typical of the Mediterranean. The coastline orientation and geography suggest northeast-facing waters, making northwest winds ideal for side-shore conditions. With an average wind reliability of only 5.3% and modest wave heights of 0.64m, this spot is best suited for beginner kiters seeking flat-water or light-wind practice sessions. The immediate proximity of residential development and limited beach width restrict session length and progression opportunities. Water temperatures average 18.6°C, requiring thermal protection in cooler months. The spot works best during rare strong wind windows when reliable northwest winds develop. Experienced kiters seeking challenging conditions should consider other exposed Mediterranean locations.
