Launch notes
The flat water and sandy launch areas make this ideal for beginners, but check wind direction carefully as NE and N winds provide the most reliable conditions. Avoid launching during heavy shipping traffic periods in the bay.
Gear & clothing
Gear · Bring a 17m kite as the average 6.2kt wind is light; consider a 15m for stronger days (Jan, Mar, Nov). A directional board or small wave board suits the flat water perfectly.
Clothing · A 3/2mm wetsuit is suitable for winter months (Jan, Dec) and spring (Mar-May); consider a 2mm shorty or spring suit for the milder season. Water temperatures range from 13-20°C depending on season.
Crowd & etiquette
Respect local beach users and swimmers, keeping a safe distance downwind. Check with any local clubs or operators before launching as this is a popular tourist beach.
Additional notes
This spot has limited consistent wind (only 10 windy days/year), so check detailed forecasts before traveling. The nearby Tyrrhenian Sea offers alternative spots if Agropoli lacks sufficient wind on your visit day.
