Kalamitsa is a spot on the south coast of Skyros, a Sporades island in the western Aegean. The Meltemi (N/NNE) is OFFSHORE on this south coast, limiting rideability in summer. The spot works in southerly wind (SE to SW), more frequent in spring and autumn. Skyros is mountainous in the south (~790m) creating complex wind effects. Reserved for advanced riders.
Riding in southerly wind only — mainly spring and autumn. Launch from the beach. Skyros is hard to access (ferry from Kymi). No kite center. Exploration spot for autonomous riders.
Open water facing south. 1-2m swell in sustained S wind. Sandy bottom. Open fetch.
Advanced
Open all year round
Parking accessible from Kalamitsa village. Paved road from Skyros town.
Meltemi OFFSHORE + katabatic effects = extreme danger in northerly wind. Isolated island, very limited rescue. Ride only in southerly wind, with company and communication equipment.
WARNING: the Meltemi (N/NNE) is OFFSHORE on Skyros's south coast. Mountains (~790m) create turbulence and katabatic effects. Do not ride in Meltemi. The spot works in southerly wind: SE/SSE (side-onshore), S (onshore), SSW/SW (side-onshore). More frequent outside summer.
