About Akyaka

Known for kitesurfing and windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SW, so wind from the NE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 22°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing and windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 300 m out (1 in 29). The sea is about 17°C in March, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Akyaka.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
