Greece is renowned for its idyllic islands, crystal-clear waters, and the strong, consistent Meltemi winds that make it a prime destination for kitesurfing cruises. These unique adventures allow kiteboarders to explore the breathtaking Cyclades archipelago while indulging in their passion for the sport. The Cyclades, a group of over 220 islands located southeast of Athens, offer a myriad of hidden coves, turquoise bays, and secluded beaches that serve as perfect playgrounds for kitesurfing during the summer months of June through September. This period coincides with the Meltemi, a dry northerly wind that blows steadily across the Aegean Sea, providing ideal conditions for kiting with wind speeds ranging from 25 to 40 knots. Kite safaris in Greece typically involve embarking on a luxurious catamaran for a week-long voyage, exploring the best kitesurfing spots across multiple islands. The itinerary is flexible, allowing the crew to adjust the route based on wind conditions and seek out the most favorable locations for kiting sessions, lessons, and coaching In This Article…1 In aNutshell…2 The experience of a kitesurf Cruise in Greece3 Itinerary and Destinations of […]

A desert of sand, flooded by fresh water and brushed with constant trade winds; the Lencois Maranhenses have long been my dream to KiteSurf.
