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
LUV Spot is located on the Greek coast within a protected bay formation, characterized by rocky headlands and sandy beach areas. The bay's northwest-facing orientation provides natural protection from large open ocean swells while allowing side-shore wind access. The spot features a combination of shallow sandy areas near shore and deeper water toward the bay mouth, with numerous rocky outcrops visible along the coastline. Wind conditions favor northeasterly winds that provide optimal side-shore conditions (45° orientation). With average wind speeds of 11.4 knots and moderate reliability at 44.3%, conditions are somewhat inconsistent. Wave heights averaging under 1 meter indicate this is not a heavy wave spot; the rough-chop water type suggests choppy conditions from wind-generated surface texture rather than organized swell. The spot suits intermediate kiters who are comfortable navigating around obstacles and managing variable winds. Beginners should exercise caution due to rocky hazards and shallow areas. Local knowledge of tide cycles and seasonal wind patterns is recommended before visiting.
