Tokyo, Japan

This Tokyo Bay location represents a sheltered bay environment in the greater Tokyo metropolitan area. The northeast-facing coastline provides protection from major ocean swells, resulting in characteristically small waves and choppy conditions typical of enclosed bay systems. Wind reliability is notably low at 37.9%, with average winds around 11.3 knots—below the typical 12-15 knot minimum for kitesurfing. Side-shore conditions occur with northwest (315°) winds. The spot suits beginners during optimal conditions due to minimal wave hazards, but water conditions remain challenging with consistent chop rather than organized swell. Average water temperature of 17.4°C requires appropriate thermal protection. Kiters should expect extended flat spells and should plan sessions around weather windows. The sheltered nature means limited fetch and consistent chop rather than clean wave formation. This location demands patience and timing to coincide with rare optimal wind days. Local regulations and bay traffic patterns should be verified before use.
