About This Spot
Termoli Kite Beach is located on the Adriatic coast of southern Italy, facing northwest toward open water. The spot features a sandy beach fronting a highway corridor that separates the shore from agricultural and residential areas inland. This is a protected beach break with modest wave heights averaging 0.51m and choppy water conditions typical of enclosed coastal waters. The northeast-facing orientation favors northeast winds for side-shore conditions. With extremely low wind reliability (8.1%) and minimal wave energy, this spot suits beginner and light-wind kiters seeking flat-water practice. The proximity to the E16 highway and dense development restricts access and creates an unconventional kiting environment. Best conditions occur during rare strong wind periods when side-shore northeast winds align with the beach orientation. Water temperatures around 17.4°C require seasonal wetsuit consideration. This location prioritizes accessibility for local kiters rather than wave quality or consistent wind.
Hazards & Safety
Highway infrastructure parallel to beach - noise and vibration
Shallow water zone with choppy conditions
Dense residential and commercial development limiting access points
Possible freshwater outlet from agricultural runoff affecting water quality
Low wave height and limited fetch distance
