Wind Days = % of days with 12–35 knot average wind speed (ideal kiting conditions). Based on 4 years of historical weather data.
Partially sheltered coastline with moderate, varied conditions
Gomati Beach is located on Limnos Island in the northern Aegean Sea, occupying a protected bay with northeast-facing orientation. The spot features a shallow enclosed bay with sandy bottom transitioning to deeper water, surrounded by agricultural land and sandy coastal dunes. The bay's narrow entrance and sheltered geography provide natural wind acceleration and wave dampening. Best conditions occur with northwest to north winds (310-350°), which blow side-shore across the bay mouth. The spot suits beginners and early intermediates due to relatively shallow, protected water and modest wave heights (0.52m average). Low wind reliability (21%) suggests variable conditions typical of the Aegean. Kiters should monitor water temperature (cool year-round) and be aware of tidal influences affecting shallow areas. The narrow bay entrance may cause wind acceleration or funneling effects. Agricultural runoff occasionally affects water clarity, particularly after heavy rainfall. Launch and landing are accessible from the sandy beach, though submerged features require local knowledge.
