Seasons

Two distinct Kite Seasons

In Kalpitiya there are two distinct kite seasons. The summer season runs from mid-May to mid-October and the winter season from mid-December to mid-March.

Summer offers wind all day long with averages of 18-20 knots, and some days goes up to 30 knots. In winter the wind picks up in the afternoon and ranges between 15 to 25 knots. The mornings are perfect for yoga, diving, dolphin & whale watching trips. Both summer and winter are warm, dry, and windy, but the wind direction changes making every spot a new adventure! You can kite without a wetsuit year round, but some prefer to wear a shortie during the winter season.
