About this spot
Kiteforum's Mykali entry documents the actual launch practice: only southerly winds are usable, the water is deep with no long walk-out, conditions run choppy with medium waves, and the level is intermediate to expert. Its direction table spans ESE through SW, while Kite Insider states plainly that the prevailing north-easterly is offshore at this beach — so the common summer wind does not make this a launch.
The same entry warns of extreme gusts and rapid direction changes and advises not going out in them, and lists swimmers, ships, rocks, stones, trees, bystanders, a road, a fence and power lines around a pebble beach where riders rig and launch on the grass behind the sand. A surf club is mentioned for forecast advice, but no kite tuition or kite-school operation is documented, and the exact launch point is not published — several grass-backed launching areas exist along this stretch.

Needs local verification: Coordinate: OpenStreetMap marker for Mykali Beach; the retrieved account describes several grass-backed launching areas rather than one identified point. Coordinates are approximate spot markers, not surveyed launch points. Wind safety and operating limits remain unknown; no ride or kite-size advice is issued. Sources confirm only the facts explicitly attributed to them.
