Skyros
Kalamitsa is a spot located on the southern coast of Skyros, an island in the Sporades in the central Aegean Sea, Greece. This spot is appreciated by local riders for its balance between accessibility and wind quality, offering a natural and relaxed setting. Kalamitsa beach provides a unique environment with calm waters and a peaceful atmosphere, ideal for kitesurfing sessions.
The Meltemi (north/north-northeast wind) is the dominant wind on this coast, although it is offshore, which can make navigation more technical. Despite this, Kalamitsa remains a favored spot for intermediate riders, and experts will also find their happiness here. The best months for riding run from June to September, when the wind is more consistent and conditions are more favorable.
