Good to know

Which beaches in Arki may be better when the meltemi blows?

The bays listed here are shielded from the meltemi in the exposure model, so they may be more comfortable when it blows. Local conditions still vary, so confirm wind and waves before you go.

Does this guarantee low waves?

No. Shelter shows which coasts are shielded from a wind direction, not guaranteed calm or low waves. On strong-wind days follow local flags and check live wind and waves in the app.

Wind and waves change every day. See live conditions for any of these beaches before you drive out.
