Whyalla is a sheltered bay location on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, facing eastward into the Spencer Gulf. The spot features a sandy beach backed by residential development and port facilities, with shallow bay waters characterized by choppy conditions and visible tidal mudflats. The enclosed nature of the bay provides protection from large ocean swells but limits wind consistency, with only 22.8% wind reliability and average winds of 9.1 knots. Water temperature averages 18.7°C, requiring appropriate wetsuits. Small average wave heights (0.49m) indicate this is primarily a flat-water kitesurfing location. Best conditions occur with northerly or southerly winds that provide side-shore offshore flow. The spot suits beginner and early-intermediate kiters seeking protected, flat-water conditions without significant wave exposure. Key considerations include timing sessions with wind windows, avoiding shallow areas and mudflats, respecting port operations, and monitoring tidal variations that affect water depth and accessibility.
