Sarakiniko
Grèce · Peloponnese Region
Sarakiniko is a kitesurfing spot located on the island of Elafonisos, southeast of the Peloponnese in Greece. It is a white sandy beach with turquoise and crystal-clear waters, favored by local riders for its consistent wind and relaxed atmosphere. The spot is open year-round, but the ideal kitesurfing period extends from May to September, when the winds from the NW and W are most frequent and powerful.
The beach of Sarakiniko offers a unique setting, with a direct launch from the white sand and flat water ideal for beginners and intermediates. The spot is self-sufficient, with no school or kite center on the island, making it perfect for independent riders. The water is generally flat, with some areas of moderate chop, and the currents are weak, making navigation easier.
