Kite-Turkey
Location: Turkey
Welcome to Turkey's leading kiteboard school and centre. We have two full-service kitesurf centres on the Cesme Peninsular, which is one of the best wind sport destinations in the Mediterranean, thanks to the reliable summer wind, beautiful weather and unspoilt local scenery.
The protected waters of Alacati bay, which host the PWA Windsurf World Cup every August, are the perfect place for all levels of kitesurfer, from beginners to experts. Our second kite centre in nearby Urla has a gently sloping sandy bottom and direct on-shore winds - ideal for beginners taking classes, intermediate riders perfecting their skills or experienced kiteboarders having fun. There's a cafe, a fantastic restaurant and chill-out area for before and after sessions or classes, with showers and changing facilities.
We offer private and group kiteboard lessons for all levels from beginners to expert clinics and master classes. The warm, shallow water extends for up to 200m from the shore making it ideal for learning and improving your skills. Our experienced and friendly instructors are fully certified by I.K.O. and speak English and German. We also run IKO Instructor Training Courses every year.
We are the Turkish distributor for North Kiteboarding, so we only use the latest North kites and boards for our classes and rentals. We also provide equipment storage and a repair service for kites, boards and sails.
The Cesme Peninsular is a natural playground for kiteboarders and windsurfers thanks to the meltem, a seasonal climatic system that creates great wind throughout the summer, from May-October. The meltem wind is strong and stable funneled and accelerated by the surrounding hills - great for kiteboarders and windsurfers! It's reliable too, with over 25 windy days a month during the summer. In summer, the meltem wind starts like clockwork at 10-11 am, strengthening during the afternoon to 4-5 Beaufort, before dying out at sunset. But it is not uncommon for the wind to get up to 5-7 Beaufort, and continue blowing day and night for a week or more. Small kite days!
Alacati is a charming town located on the Cesme peninsular on Turkey's beautiful Aegean coast. Overlooked by a row of stone windmills, the town's cobbled streets are lined with stone houses, shops and tavernas, and dotted with friendly guesthouses and boutique hotels. The shops sell local crafts, jewellery and antiques; while the village square is filled with market stalls and open-air cafes. There are many interesting sights and great beaches on the Cesme peninsular and plenty of other things to do, such as diving, sailing or visiting one of the local hot-springs. After dark, there are nightspots to suit all tastes, from friendly tavernas to slick cocktail bars, with a selection of nightclubs and beach bars open until dawn nearby.
