The sea is shallow for 150 m and the bottom is purely sand. For the first 50 m the water is completely free of waves and calm. Small waves occur after 50 m depending on the wind's power.
The water temprature is suitable enough to do kiteboarding without wearing a wetsuite.
There are 7 rivers feeding Gokova Bay so the salt level is quite low on the shore. The rivers also play the role of cleaning the sea.
