The main port and island capital is Kos Town situated on the north east coast. It is a place of architectural beauty, abundant greenery, tree lined avenues and pretty flower filled squares. You will find the hub of island life here, under a shady palm, in one of the many restaurants, bars and shops. Only 6km south east from Kos town is the quieter resort of Psalidi.  A fabulous beach provides the setting for some amazing windsurfing. Mountain biking and walking are also very popular here. Dedicated cycle lanes are all over the Island and guided walks take place in the hills of Psalidi.

Sailing Spot & Conditions

The ‘Meltemi' wind blows consistently in the summer from the north/northwest, delivery a cross shore wind from the left.  The average strength is for 4-6 with some days up to 7-8 in July and August.  The sheltered launch is great for beginners and kids. Once past the slight shore break, this affords sensational slalom blasting with swell up to 1m on the outside. A safe sailing area with lots of space on the water and dedicated Baywatch and rescue service. As well as stunning views whilst sailing, the proximity of Turkey and Kos create a wind funnel system giving stronger winds than other spots on the island.

The Big Blue Surf Centre, situated on the sandy beach, is friendly and well organized, having a range of over 100 Fanatic boards and 150 rigs. The center offers tuition at all levels, but Psaldi is really best suited to intermediate - advanced windsurfers.
