About this spot

Let's Kite describes Rusanda as a shallow salt lake near Melenci offering flat-water kitesurfing, with regular winds across the surrounding flat terrain; Kite Jungle ranks it first in Serbia with about 176 kiteable days a year.

Let's Kite still rates it intermediate, so the beginner label is withheld until a local source confirms a standing-depth learning area. Its record shows a February–June season peaking in May.

Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from Let's Kite's Serbian spot guides, a Glas Opova local news report (Sakule, 2020), Kite Jungle and Spotkitesurf. A Belgrade kite club (Kiteloop Centre) is listed by CrazyFly, but no lesson location is published for these spots. Coordinates are the guides' approximate pins; exact launch, access, parking, fishing-pond rules and any river-traffic restrictions need on-site confirmation. The water table is a seasonal estimate for Pannonian lowland water.

Local hazards

  • Soft mud bottom (spa mud lake)
  • Spa bathers in summer
  • No school, patrol or rescue documented
