Keros Beach Kitesurf (Lemnos)
39° 54.4′ N · 25° 22.1′ E · approximate
Lemnos lies square in the path of the meltemi, and its east-coast beaches — Keros among them — are where the island's kite and windsurf schools set up for steady summer wind.
Practical
Coordinate is Grecosailor's Paralia Keros sand anchorage (no sailor reviews). Visit Limnos says the meltemi is strongest on the east-coast beaches, where fully organized kite/windsurf schools operate; Grecosailor describes Saravari bay on the north coast (39.9678, 25.3443) as a renowned wind spot with several kite and windsurf schools, where 25 kn outside became 30 kn inside, with about 6 m depth for 150 m off the beach. Keros' own school details could not be verified — check locally. Marked as approx because the watersport base location was not confirmed. Not an overnight anchorage in a meltemi.
