Program
Since 2006 KiteGreece has offered high-quality services to the Greek kiteboarding scene. Experienced instructors, designated shallow water areas for students, private facilities, ideal weather conditions, and the latest equipment make Marmari Surf Club a perfect destination for both learning and practicing kiteboard.
Despite that Evia (Euboea) Island is a perfect multi-activity destination. It’s also one of the windiest places in Greece. Due to its geographical position, it offers unique wind conditions all year round. Especially from March to the middle of October the main spots offer kiteable wind conditions every day. The wind strength varies from 15-35 knots and the water conditions from small chop to flat to mid-size wind swell which creates waves 1-2.5 meters at certain spots.
Marmari Surf Club is one of the most guaranteed wind-related destinations in Greece due to the shape of the mountains surrounding the village of Marmari and the small straight in between Euboea island and Petali islands which create the Venturi effect. It mainly works with Meltemi (Northern) wind.
You can expect winds from 15 to 35 knots. So, 12- to 7-meter kites would be a good choice but mainly nine-meter is a good size. The spot also works with South, West, and North West winds. An important note is that Karistos which is the biggest city in the area and 10 minutes drive from Marmari offers 20 kilometers of coastline with beautiful blue waters and nice waves when south winds blow.
The program
This kitesurf camp by KiteGreece includes 10 hours of semi-private kitesurfing lessons for a minimum of two people. The lessons are usually separated into two-hour sessions. The most common practice is two hours in the morning and two hours in the afternoon. All equipment is included. The kite spot in Marmari is with steady Meltemi wind from mid-June to the end of September, coming side shore. Please note that the daily program is according to the wind and the other bookings.
Please note that 6-hour private and 10-hour semi-private lessons are for beginners only.
