How is the rating calculated?

The 5-star rating combines the swell height compared with what the spot handles, its period (the longer, the more powerful the waves), its direction, and the wind: offshore wind (blowing from land to sea) grooms the waves, onshore wind spoils them. For kitesurf spots the rating mostly depends on wind strength and direction. It helps you choose; it is not a guarantee, so always check the spot before paddling out.
