Greece is located in the South East of Europe between the
Aegean Sea, the Ionian Sea and the Mediterranean Sea. It is a peninsular and mountainous country.
Greece offers perfect conditions for Kitesurfing especially during the sunny and warm summer months.

Winds: The wind conditions in Greece are perfect for the practice of greece Kitesurfing. Greece is surrounded by two seas. The Aegean and the Ionian Seas.

The best area to practice Kitesurfing is the Aegean Sea for the reason that all the islands of the Aegean are blew by a summer wind coming from the North, the "Meltemi".
The Meltemi isblowing all the islands from the months of May to September but it is especially strong and violent during the months of July and August.

The intensity varies from region to region. One of the windiest regions of the Aegean is the Cyclades. Two islands are really famous for their wind conditions: Naxos and Paros which attracts many kite surfers every year.

The Ionian Sea winds which blows during the summer months are called "Maistros" and are from the North West. They are less strong and frequent than the Meltemi but in some areas like Vassiliki and Agios Ioannis in Lefkada Island, a thermal wind also offers perfect conditions for Greece Kitesurfing.
