Location
Detailed information
The Theologos spot offers a mixed water surface with flat conditions in the morning and small to medium waves in the afternoon when the wind picks up. The wind orientation is generally side-onshore or side-shore from the NW or W, perfect for stability and safety for beginners.
Launching is done directly from the sandy beach in front of the Alex Beach Hotel, with a wide take-off area free of obstacles. The riding area is vast and sparsely populated, even in high season, thanks to the available space on the 2500 m² of the center.
The wind starts light around 9-10 am (2-3 Bft) for beginners, then rises to 15-25 knots by noon until sunset around 8:30 pm. Watch out for gusts in the afternoon; directions N, NNE, NE, NW, W, WNW work well, offshore from the north and side from the northwest.
