About Kardamena

Kardamena sits on Kos's eastern coast, offering intermediate riders a bay environment with variable chop. The beach is well-organized for launching, with nearby amenities supporting casual sessions. Wind patterns are seasonal, and conditions can shift through the day. Best visited during the Greek islands' prime wind months when thermals and sea breezes establish themselves.
