Beach and Tide Conditions
Kitesurfing conditions
do not depend on Tide
on this spot.
Fener, Turkey is a
Flat spot.
The
launching/landing area
is reported to be of
Small size.
The main beach indicated is reserved for windsurfers (and sunbathers). There is a small, narrow, sandy beach just round the headland which lies West of the main beach. Not many sunbathers or swimmers, even in August, though some so you need to take care. Though beach is small, launch and landing are straightforward. Local school even teaches from this beach, but it isn't ideal for beginners.
Flat to choppy water. The small kitesurfing beach which is just North of the Kemer beach has a shallow area going out in a semi-circle approx 70m. Only on strong westerlies some nice waves can build up. Open sea conditions and with main wind direction in summer being NNW to NW you won't reach a beach for hours if anything goes wrong. The local kite/windsurf school which operates at the main Kemer beach told me they keep a look-out till 6pm and send a rescue boat for Euro 20 (you could try haggling). Tell the school that you're kiting on the next beach, so they know. They can't see the kiters, only the ones that are in problems when they are drifting by.
