Overview
Limnos, located in the northern Aegean Sea in Greece, is an idyllic island still little known in the kitesurfing world, making it an uncrowded paradise with Caribbean-style turquoise waters and preserved nature. The main spot, Keros Bay, offers a variety of unique conditions on the same beach: an ultra-flat and shallow northern part ideal for learning, a central section with moderate chop for jumps, and a southern end with small waves for light wave riding. The dominant wind, the Meltemi, comes in side-shore from the northeast or north, with speeds of 16 to 25 knots, particularly between mid-June and mid-September, while the season extends from May to October. With a shallow sandy bottom and a large standing area, this spot is perfect for beginners as well as experienced freestyle riders, in an authentic and relaxed atmosphere. Local schools like Surf Club Keros and Siroko offer lessons and equipment, in an uncrowded setting where the local clay culture and the warmth of the inhabitants enhance the experience.
