Polyegos kitesurf and wingfoil spot

Greece

Spot currently openExpert level 36.77 | 24.61

Overview

Polyegos is a kitesurf spot located near the uninhabited island of Polyegos, in the Cyclades, Greece. This wild and preserved island offers an exceptional natural setting with crystal-clear waters. The spot is exposed to the Meltemi, the powerful northerly wind that blows in summer in the Cyclades. Conditions are strong and the spot is reserved for experienced riders due to the island's isolation and lack of infrastructure. Access is only possible by boat from Milos or Kimolos.
