Limnos
The beach of Gomati, on the west coast of Limnos in the northern Aegean Sea, is a wild spot with its long sand dunes, the most extensive in Greece. Accessible by a dirt track, it offers a unique Saharan backdrop in the middle of nowhere. It is a favorite place for riders due to its powerful waves and isolated atmosphere.
Surrounded by pine trees and bordered by a fine sandy beach, Gomati attracts especially in spring and autumn when the wind picks up. The desert landscape and dunes make it a memorable place for freeride or wave sessions. Little frequented, it is ideal for those seeking authenticity away from the crowds.
Close to other spots like Keros, Gomati complements a stay on the island with its more challenging conditions. Locals and experienced travelers return for the challenge of waves that can reach several meters.

Location
Detailed information
Gomati is a spot oriented onshore to side-on with the Meltemi dominating from the northwest in summer. The water surface transforms into solid waves of several meters when the wind exceeds 25 knots, perfect for wave riding. Launching takes place on the wide, fine sandy beach, with a clear take-off area on the dunes.
The bay extends for several kilometers, offering space to navigate without hindrance, but the waves mainly form offshore with strong wind. In side-shore, the wind follows the coast, making sessions explosive for advanced freestyle. Little significant tide in the Mediterranean, the spot remains consistent, but beware of gusts on the dunes.
Access by dirt road, wild parking at the edge of the beach. Downwind zones to the north, with possible return on foot. Ideal for long self-sufficient sessions, with no clubs in the immediate vicinity unlike Keros.
