Chalikounas is a sheltered beach break located on the northwest coast of Corfu, Greece, facing the Ionian Sea. The spot features a long sandy beach backed by dense Mediterranean forest and a shallow lagoon system visible in the satellite imagery. The protected bay configuration creates a relatively enclosed water area, making it suitable for lighter wind conditions. With prevailing wind reliability of only 8.4% and average wind speeds of 6.1 knots, this spot works best during seasonal wind events. The narrow fetch and surrounding vegetation limit wind generation, making conditions variable and unpredictable. The shallow lagoon and confined beach area make this primarily a beginner-friendly spot, though the low wind frequency requires patience. Northeast winds (approximately 45°) provide optimal side-shore conditions parallel to the beach. Kiters should be aware of the forest backdrop limiting wind flow, shallow water requiring caution, and the seasonal nature of usable conditions at this location.
