South Fort Myers Beach is located on a protected bay system in southwest Florida, characterized by shallow, flat water typical of Gulf Coast estuaries. The spot faces south toward the Gulf of Mexico, with a sheltered lagoon environment created by barrier islands and coastal development. The shallow depths and enclosed bay configuration limit fetch and wave generation, making this primarily a flat-water kitesurfing destination. Best conditions occur with easterly winds (90°) that provide side-shore flow parallel to the coastline. Wind reliability is extremely low at 1.4%, with average wind speeds only 6 knots, making sessions infrequent. The area is densely developed with residential properties, docks, and recreational boat traffic, requiring careful navigation and awareness of obstacles. Mangrove zones and seagrass beds are present in shallow sections. This spot is best suited for beginner and intermediate kiters seeking flat-water freestyle practice when wind conditions align, though consistent sessions are unlikely. The shallow water provides safety benefits but limits maneuvering space.
