Kite season in Greece: May - October
It only takes a day or two before you feel like you've met the friendly and hospitable people of Kos. The small fishing village of Mastichari is home to our kitesurfing spot and has a real local flavor away from the mass tourism that is prevalent in other parts of the island.
Kos is one of the few Greek islands where the conditions are excellent for both beginners and advanced. Our VDWS licensed school is located on a wide sandy beach run by Stefan, who is originally from Austria and has lived his life on the water. His team has developed its lesson structure to ensure a high level of security with a maximum of two students per teacher. With a unique boat training system, they offer fast progress on the water and lots of fun.
Our kitesurf house is conveniently located just a few minutes from the kitesurf spot and town, so you can easily walk to everything. The house has 8 separate studios, each with its own balcony giving you your own private space. Group bonding begins with breakfast at the Aplo restaurant before heading to the beach for some kitesurfing, and often ends with a drink or two at the beach bar as well.
Perfect for relaxation and fun, the space of the Hotel Luis is also popular with families. Our location is perfect for children to play on the wide sandy beach right in front of the kite spot and our center also offers windsurfing or stand up paddle lessons for them.
The windy season is longer than you might imagine, from April to the end of October. The weather stays warm and sunny throughout the season, perfect for sitting on the terraces of the local Greek taverns and enjoying the delicious food. As for all of our destinations, we have our own KiteWorldWide guide on site who will be happy to show you the best restaurants, kitesurfing spots and other attractions in Mastichari.
Cheap flights depart several days a week. The Kite House is a short 20 minute transfer from the airport.

Stefan, center leader
"The hospitality of Kos, the traditional style of Mastichari and the different kitesurfing spots make the island so special to me. Whether it's a freestyle session, kitesurfing or a ride on the wingfoil, everyone has fun on the water here on Kos. And at the end of a long day of sailing, I look forward to having a cool beer at sunset on the beach with friends."

Kitespots and Kiteschule
The Mastichari kitesurfing spot is located on the island of Kos and is perfect for beginners due to the constant wind and calm sea, where we offer unique lessons from a boat. The venue is located directly on a wide sandy beach with exclusive access to a 400 meter long launch area.

Kitesurfing in Greece - kitespots on Kos, kitesurfing school in Mastichari and conditions for kitesurfing in Greece
KOS KITESURFING CONDITIONS
Are you a kitesurfing enthusiast looking for the perfect spot? Then kitesurfing in Kos is for you. The island is as diverse as the kitesurfing spots, you can learn kitesurfing on Kos, use the waves for jumping, or gain your first kitesurfing experience. You can also learn to wingfoil or windsurf on Kos.
OVERVIEW OF THE BEST KITEPOTS IN KOS
On the beautiful sandy beach of the small fishing village of Mastichari we sail with a steady wind and plenty of room in the water until sunset. This is the main kitesurfing spot and the permanent kitesurfing school, the other kitesurfing spots are reached from the mobile kitesurfing station, the 4x4 fire truck (also shown in the video).
In Marmari, the second kitesurfing spot on Kos, you have the opportunity to learn wingfoiling and windsurfing. In Marmari, the Meltemi wind is reinforced by the jet effect, so we often go to Marmari when the wind direction is not so good for Mastichari.
The third place to kitesurf on Kos is Kohilari, where you have the best chance of catching a clean wave for kitesurfing.
WIND AND WEATHER IN KOS
It's hot summer in Kos from April, temperatures around 20-25 degrees are not uncommon, from June temperatures rise to around 25-30 degrees during the day. The Meltemi provides the necessary wind for kitesurfing, the prevailing wind direction is northwest, so in summer the wind comes from side to side or inland at Mastichari.
KITE SCHOOL AND KITE COURSES IN KOS
We have had a wonderful collaboration with Stefan and Joe's kitesurf school in Mastichari for many years. There you will get kitesurfing lessons from licensed instructors, a full kitespot briefing and really good kitesurfing support so you can progress quickly and safely.
KITESURFING HOLIDAYS IN KOS - BEST TRAVEL TIPS:
In addition to kitesurfing, Kos offers many other activities such as diving, snorkelling and hiking. Kos is also known for its laid-back atmosphere, ancient beaches, and delicious Greek cuisine. It is also easy to rent a motorbike or a car in Kos and explore the island.
KITE SURFING A CUSTOM
Kos is a classic summer kitesurfing holiday thanks to Meltemi and an ideal destination for a family kitesurfing holiday. Kos is a great kitesurfing destination to learn kitesurfing, but also to get started on the waves or try foiling thanks to the wide range of kitespots. A big advantage is the short distances between the kitesurf spots and the views of the island. Kos is also one of the TOP tourist destinations in Europe in terms of budget.
