Λιμάνι Λευκίμμης kitesurf, wingfoil and windsurf spot
Greece
Overview
Lefkimmi Port (Λιμάνι Λευκίμμης) is located on Corfu's southeast coast. This spot works mainly in SE/S wind, when the Sirocco or southerly winds blow up the channel between Corfu and the mainland. The water is semi-sheltered by the coastline configuration. It's a secondary spot, rideable when wind conditions are from the south — unlike the main west coast spots that need NW wind.

On the water
Semi-sheltered water in the channel. Moderate chop in SE wind. Sandy and muddy bottom. Gradually deepening. The channel offers an elongated riding area.
Parking
Parking near Lefkimmi port. Easy access from the village. Free parking along the coastal road.
Wind specificities
This spot works in southerly winds: SE, S, SSE. The Sirocco (SE wind) blows up the channel between Corfu and the mainland, arriving side-onshore to onshore on this coast. This wind is more frequent in spring and autumn. In summer, the Maestro (NW) doesn't work here as the coast is sheltered. The channel can funnel and accelerate southerly winds.
Hazards
Maritime traffic: ferries to Igoumenitsa and fishing boats. Currents in the channel in strong wind. Do not ride in ferry shipping lanes. Secondary spot — ride with company, few regular riders.
