Windsurfing in Limnos

On Limnos you will find Keros Bay, this stunning bay offers sun, consistent wind, shallow, flat turquoise waters and waves. It is a unique spot in that it offers windsurfers of all levels something to enjoy all on the same beach. Keros Bay also offers excellent weather during the summer months from June to September. The summer conditions include plenty of sunshine, an average temperature of 25 to 30 degrees Celsius, incredibly warm water and very little rain. Don’t worry about a wetsuit during these summer months, but perhaps bring along a 3mm wetsuit towards the end of the summer season, just in case.

The bay here is a very safe spot and the bottom is nice and sandy so no booties needed, also the water is clean, clear and shallow for about 80-150 meters from the shore. The beaches are sandy and wide making it very easy to rig up your equipment. The tidal movements are not huge so the so the water level stays almost the same throughout the day.
