Overview

Lake Turawa (Jezioro Turawskie) is a large artificial reservoir located near Opole, in Silesia. It is the main kitesurfing spot in the region, very popular among riders from Wrocław and Opole.

The body of water is vast (approximately 22 km²) with good riding distances. The depth is moderate and the bottom is sandy in places. Several beaches provide easy water access.

The lake works with winds from most directions thanks to its size. West and southwest winds are the most frequent. The season runs from May to October. Water sports schools are set up around the lake.
