With W–WNW–NW winds, peaking from May to August, Fener, Turkey delivers the kind of sessions that keep riders coming back year after year.
Why Riders Love It
Good winds all year round. Here you will find the most wind in the area, since the wind gets accelerated. Best in NW and W. There was wind every afternoon I went (August). A local told me it's not as reliable from September.
When to Go
Surfable all year. Spring to fall no wetsuit needed but during winter.
What to Expect
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.
