Hazards
The water is quite cold in all seasons, so equip yourself properly. Crowds are also a potential danger, don't hesitate to do a few runs to position yourself above the masses.
Wind specificities
The wind on Lake Silvaplana is thermal and comes from the southwest through the Maloja Pass.
The thermal wind works as long as the weather is good and there is no northerly wind trend.
The north wind is often irregular and not really rideable (wing and windsurf might be okay).
Due to the altitude of the lake (1790m), the wind is much less dense, so you'll need more sail area. Follow the locals' lead when choosing your kite size.
