SURF CONDITIONS
Breaks directly at the main spot and at nearby spots
North winds and meltemi are blowing endlessly here, but the hangover never let someone pay attention. The N and NE side-shore wind is stronger in the morning, creating fine flat water conditions near the bay and choppier further out.
Every afternoon hot “meltemi” wind changes direction to NW offshore, keeping the water flat all across the coast and producing ideal conditions for young guns or beginners.
Speed seekers will have a serious blast when it’s blowing harder.
During the pretty rare windless days we organise SUP fun races in order to keep our visitors performance and spirit high!
Seasonal conditions
1st period: Mid May to mid October 2019

Near Casa Romana is also the Roman Market, that constitutes apart of ancient market. In the Freedom square exists Pane Nteferntar. In center of this building is a dome while the appreciable decorative element in his interior is the round frames with verses from the Korani.
Most important site of kos Island is the Asklipion, hardly four kilometers outside from the capita, in the region of Virgin Mary of Tarsus. It is dated before 4th century B.C. and gave Kos enormous fame at the Hellenistic years. It was a version of modern health center, dedicated to Asklipios, the god of medicine.
At Kos was given birth Hippocrates (460-357 B.C) father of medicine, who promoted pathology, diagnostics, surgical, gynecology and obstetrics specialties. It is world wide known the Hippocrates Oath, that say the new doctors in the start of their career.
