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
Korfos Bay is a double-basin water body on Mykonos, Greece, with distinct geographic characteristics. The upper (northern) basin is more sheltered with limited fetch, while the lower (southern) basin connects to open water with increased wave exposure. The coastline orientation is northeast-facing, making side-shore conditions achievable from northwest (315°) or southeast (135°) winds. The spot experiences low wind reliability (41.8%) and moderate wave heights (0.82m average), indicating it is not a consistent destination. The area shows significant residential and resort development, with moored boats and light vessel traffic throughout both basins. Hazards include mooring field congestion, rocky outcrops on the eastern shore, and shallow areas near developed coastlines. Best conditions occur during northwest wind events, which provide side-shore access to the southern basin with better fetch. The narrow channel connecting the two basins creates variable water conditions. This spot suits intermediate kiters seeking protected conditions during light-to-moderate wind windows, though consistency limitations and development density present operational constraints.
