About this spot
Spots4Kite's Tigaki entry describes a kite spot on the sandy Tigaki beach with a north-westerly wind arriving side-onshore and a June–August season, and reports swimmers, trees, concrete and rocks or reef among the hazards. SurfinGR supports a shallow entry with chop and waves and summer crowding, and describes roughly 4–6 Beaufort in summer, while a second guide labels the usual wind “below 10 knots” — the strength accounts contradict each other and neither is a verified operating limit.
SurfinGR's own activity field omits kitesurfing while its narrative discusses it, no permitted launch zone is delineated and no school is verified at a precisely identified Tigaki launch (Horizon's documented Alykes satellite is a separate record), so the beginner flag is withheld despite the shallow entry. The pin is an OpenStreetMap beach marker; launch boundaries, the rock and concrete positions and seasonal swimmer rules need local confirmation.

Needs local verification: Coordinate: OpenStreetMap marker for Tigaki Beach; the permitted launch zone is not delineated in the retrieved sources. Coordinates are approximate spot markers, not surveyed launch points. Wind safety and operating limits remain unknown; no ride or kite-size advice is issued. Sources confirm only the facts explicitly attributed to them.
