Spot de Kremasti / Rhodos

Kremasti / Rhodos

Kremasti / Rhodos

Overview

Kremasti is a kitesurfing and windsurfing spot on the northwest coast of Rhodes, marking the southern end of the famous Ixia-Ialissos-Trianda windy corridor. This coastal village offers the same Meltemi conditions as its northern neighbors, with the advantage of being slightly less crowded. The pebble and sand beach benefits from direct west exposure to the Meltemi. Kremasti is also known for its international airport located right next to it — watch for low flight paths.
