Kos
Marmari is an exceptional kitesurfing spot located on the west coast of the island of Kos, Greece, between Tingaki and Mastichari. This long sandy beach benefits from direct exposure to the north-west wind, the famous Meltemi, which accelerates due to a jet effect created by two small islands located about 8 km in front of the spot. The water surface is flat to choppy, with small waves, allowing all levels, from beginners to experts, to enjoy.
It is a unique, authentic, and refined place, appreciated by local riders for its consistent and powerful wind, often between 20 and 40 knots at the spot. The atmosphere is relaxed, with the presence of a high-end hotel, the Caravia Beach Hotel, and a water sports school. However, launching and taking off can be tricky due to the presence of palm trees on the small beach, and the kite area has been moved further away, where the beach is very narrow (about 10 m).
