Skarfeia is a kitesurfing spot located on the north coast of the Gulf of Lamia (Malian Gulf), in central Greece. This spot offers a coastal body of water with consistent wind conditions channelled by the gulf.

The spot is suitable for intermediate riders with a relatively flat body of water and easy access from the national road.
