About the spot

Steccato di Cutro is an open Ionian coastal spot with a sandy beach and a school base at Porto Kaleo. The local operator describes southerly and southwesterly winds as useful wave conditions. Activity mainly runs from spring into autumn.

Beginners can learn under supervision in small conditions. Bigger surf suits confident progressing riders and experienced wave kiters. A sandy bottom does not guarantee calm water. Agree the launch zone, recovery arrangements and access through the resort area with the school beforehand.
