About Kitesurf spot
Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SW, so wind from the NE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 21°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 450 m out (1 in 45). The sea is about 15°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 27°C in August, its warmest (no wetsuit). No town nearby. Nearest beds: Nafpaktos, 2 km (about 5 min by car). Nearest airport: Patras Araxos Agamemnon Airport (GPA), 45 km.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
