Riding Conditions
Wind and Weather Conditions
In summer the air temperature is 25-35°C. During winter a wetsuit is necessary.
Recommended wind for kitesurfing is wind coming from SSE, S, SSW, SW and WSW .
There is Thermal wind at Samos / Psili Ammos, Greece.
Works best in Southerlies. But most of the time the wind is offshore or powered by a thermal effect. Be careful to watch the forecast since the thermal effect gives just enough wind to kite, but is NEVER stable to have a good session. Also a wind direction change can occur very rapidly, which makes you drift to Turkey.
Wind usually blows from ENE on the spot.

Beach and Tide Conditions
Kitesurfing conditions do not depend on Tide on this spot.
Samos / Psili Ammos, Greece is a Shallow, Flat and Chop spot.
The launching/landing area is reported to be of Small size.
Beautiful small beach situated in a bay near Turkey. In contrary to most beaches in Samos this one has sand and a sandy bottom. Also the water is relative shallow which makes it possible to launch in the water. That is also necessary since the beach is narrow and even from June there is a lot of crowd. I would not recommend to kite there in the weekends and in the high-season. Too dangerous for the swimmers and sunbathers.
Beautiful bay with sandy bottom where you can walk knee deep for over 25 meters.
