Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from windsurf.sk's community spot register, Spotkitesurf's Slovak spot list, Slovakia.travel's kiting page and Slovak school pages (Kite Ride). Kite Ride itself writes that Slovak lakes are poor for learning and runs its courses in Hungary — so no Slovak spot carries a beginner label. Pins are approximate, wind windows are my reading of each shoreline, and bathing-zone, fishing and fee rules need checking on site. Water temperature is a seasonal lake estimate; the marine model has no inland data.
