Flat

This has got to be one of the best flatwater spots in the U.K! Portland is a small island just south of Weymouth town. Connecting Weymouth to Portland is Chesil beach. Winds from the South and West blow directly over Chesil beach and create a super flatwater offshore spot on the other side. Most offshore spots are for advanced kiters only, however, this spot is much safer and opens up the spot to intermediate riders too. It stays shallow for a relatively long distance downwind and you kitesurf within the walls of Portland Harbour which act as a barrier from the open ocean.

Greatstone beach is a fantastic kite location. It is the perfect spot for learning how to ride upwind, master new techniques, or land your first trick. It is a very mellow spot with perfect flat water in between the small waves. Here you will find a vast sandy beach meaning there is plenty of space to launch and land kites.
