Gökova – Akyaka

Wing Kite Beginner Intermediate Advanced

A 3 km wide bay at the head of the Gulf of Gökova in south-west Turkey where the summer thermal blows in from the west almost every day, from May to November. The water is shallow, about a metre deep, and usually flat with a little chop, which makes it a freeride and freestyle favourite and an easy place to start. Accommodation is within walking distance of the beach; the spot gets busy in high season.
