Breeza

Kitesurfing Schinias

Attica, Greece

Wind & Conditions

Sandy national-park beach at Marathon Bay, 40 km north-east of Athens; the southern section of the beach catches the south wind directly onshore, making it the main kite area. South wind is the predominant kiting direction, usable year-round with best conditions in Feb-May and Sep-November; summer Meltemi from the north is side-offshore and less suitable. Shallow, clear water; popular school spot for beginners.
