Komito Beach
Grèce · South Aegean
Komito Beach, on the island of Syros in the Cyclades, is a fine sandy beach bordered by a lively bar and an enchanting setting. It is a little-known spot for kiters but appreciated by locals for its crystal-clear water and relaxed atmosphere. Poseidonia, the nearby village, offers easy access with its taverns and views of the Aegean Sea.
The spot is located on the southern coast of the island, exposed to the Meltemi winds that sweep through the Cyclades in season. The beach stretches over a modest length, ideal for a session without excessive crowds.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The best conditions occur with winds from N, SSW, SW, NW, WNW, W, NNW, or S, often side-shore or side-on relative to the south-facing beach. The water surface is generally choppy, with open navigation areas in front of the beach but limited by the bay's configuration. Launching is done directly from the sand, easy even for intermediates, while the take-off area is wide in the center of the beach. Be cautious of lateral areas where the wind can become onshore and gusty in the afternoon. The Meltemi typically strengthens in the afternoon, increasing from 15 kts to more if the regime is stable.
