Yoff

Yoff is a beach break located on Senegal's Atlantic coast, facing south toward open ocean. The satellite imagery shows a sandy beach with organized wave patterns and shallow water extending from the shoreline. This is a protected coastal area with relatively gentle conditions, making it suitable for beginners developing their skills. The spot experiences minimal wind consistency (14.9% reliability) with average winds of 8.2 knots, requiring patience for suitable sessions. Average wave heights of 1.47m provide manageable conditions for progression. Optimal conditions occur with easterly winds (90°), which provide side-shore alignment parallel to the coast. The spot is characterized by sandy bottom and gradual depth increase, reducing hazards from sharp obstacles. Water temperature averaging 25.6°C is comfortable year-round. This location suits beginner to early-intermediate kiters seeking consistent, mellow conditions without significant technical challenges. Visitors should monitor wind forecasts closely due to low reliability and be aware of local fishing activities and tidal movements that can affect water conditions.
