Greece

Our windsurfing holidays in Greece make this exciting and exhilarating sport accessible to everybody. If you have ever wanted to learn windsurfing, Greece is a great place to start.

With free expert tuition and RYA coaching on one of our Greece windsurfing holidays you'll improve in leaps and bounds. Whatever your age or ability, just step on board and have a go.

Neilson have been windsurfing in Greece for over 25 years, with superb equipment and excellent instruction. Every Beachclub and Beachplus Club is a Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Training Centre, ensuring high standards of safety, equipment and instruction.

Our Beachplus Clubs in Greece at Lesvos, Halkidiki, Lemnos and Sivota offer the chance to learn to windsurf alongside other activities, working towards your RYA Level 1 certificate and maybe beyond, in a very relaxed, laid-back environment.

Experienced windsurfers are also catered for especially on the island of Lesvos and Lemnos where strong, reliable winds ensure fast progression and enable you to work on your planing  and more advanced technique sessions.

If need be, our staff are on hand to rig and launch a range of boards and sails for your independent use within our safety area.

Where to go for the best windsurfing in Greece

One of the best destinations for windsurfing in Greece is Vassiliki, where you will find the Neilson run Cosmos Beachclub. One of Europe’s most famous windsurfing destinations, and a well known Mecca for windsurfers who want to blast on flat water. The awe-inspiring mountains of Lefkas ensure that the action doesn’t stop at the beach, with great terrain for all mountain bikers.

If you want to learn to windsurf then don’t let Vassiliki’s reputation put you off, as the morning breeze is always gentle. However, when ‘Eric’, Vassiliki’s famous wind, kicks in for the afternoon,experts can choose from the impressive array of high performance kit. If you still have the energy, we offer late safety cover most evenings when the winds blow.

RYA tuition is included at Vassiliki and at our other Beachclubs in Greece. Windsurfing can also be enjoyed in Greece at Finikounda and Porto Heli.

Optional, expert tuition is included in the price of all Greece windsurfing holidays.

From 'Start Windsurfing' for complete beginners to intermediate and advanced sessions covering the harness, footstraps, waterstart and carve gypes, our RYA training centres offer the freedom to take advantage of expert tuition whenever you like.
