Overview

This spot is located on the Dnipro River near the city of Kakhovka in the Kherson Oblast. The Kakhovka Reservoir was one of the largest artificial water bodies in Ukraine, offering a wide space for kitesurfing.

Note: the Kakhovka Dam was destroyed in June 2023, draining the reservoir. Navigation conditions have been drastically altered. The water is fresh and this is an inland spot.
