Overview

In the Cyclades, Naxos is a very popular kite destination, with a Greek island atmosphere that is both sporty and relaxed. The heart of the area is mainly around Mikri Vigla and the nearby beaches, where the Meltemi brings a steady north wind during the season. The water is generally quite manageable, often calmer than wave spots, making it a good place to progress as well as to enjoy riding. The most interesting period usually runs from May to October, with well-winded days in summer. Depending on the beaches, there may be more chop or a slightly exposed entry, but overall it remains accessible and highly appreciated by riders of all levels.
