About This Spot
Kalavadra is a beach break located on the northern coast of an Aegean peninsula in Greece, with the water facing northeast. The spot features a gently sloping sandy beach bordered by extensive agricultural land. The shoreline shows mixed rocky and sandy sections with visible rock formations that require careful navigation. Side-shore winds from the northwest (315°) provide the safest conditions for kitesurfing. However, this location presents significant limitations: wind reliability is extremely low at 12%, making consistent sessions unreliable. Average wind speeds of 7.3 knots are marginal for kitesurfing. Water conditions are choppy and choppy, typical of moderately protected coastal areas. The proximity of agricultural fields suggests potential water quality concerns. The spot is suitable primarily for beginners seeking protected conditions when wind is available, but the low reliability and marginal wind strength make it less attractive than more exposed coastal alternatives. Best sessions occur during seasonal wind patterns when northwesterly flows develop.
