Wind Surfing
Naxos is the surfing paradise for both beginners and experienced surfers. Here in Naxos you will find the magical mix of waist-deep lagoon and waves, as well as the best equipped windsurf center.
From the marbled courtyard of the Flisvos Surf Centre at Saint George Beach you reach the wave area situated directly next to our Beach Cafe’. When the wind blows with wind gail 4 to 5, this spot is ideal for slalom and freestyle sailing. With more wind this spot is ideal for wave freaks and certainly one of the best wave spots in Greece. The waves are between 1 and 2.5 meters high, allowing radical jumps and wave riding. From the wave spot you can reach the flat-water spot within five minutes of downwind sailing.
The Lagoon windsurfing and catamaran centre is situated 500 meters away from the Flisvos Centre and can be reached in a five minutes walk along the beach. The lagoon is a shallow flat-water spot. It is ideal for beginners in order to learn windsurfing and for intermediate windsurfers in order to achieve a fast progress. The lagoon is a perfect place to enjoy speed sailing in flat-water conditions and to practise power jibes and freestyle moves. Advanced windsurfers can easily access the wave area by passing the reef through a marked passage.
Wind surfing is also available in Plaka beach, while Mikri Vigla and Orkos are both ideal places for wind surfers.
