WIND CLUB

THE WINDSURFING PARADISE!

Windsurfing in Vassiliki

Vassiliki is known world-wide for it’s wind effect. Lefkas – a mountainous island, has a high western coastline. When the Ionian’s summer west/north-westerly wind blows on to the island, it rises up the western slopes. The air reaches the top and cools accelerating down into Vassiliki bay.

For the conditions in Vassiliki to be perfect cross-shore, the prevailing wind onto the island generally only needs to be light. By the time it flows into the bay, it has built to give a strong warm wind, ideal for blasting.

Mornings – the wind in the morning is ideal for beginners. The breeze is very light, and blows on-shore with flat calm water. So you can practice sailing back and forth across the wind, up-wind & down-wind, and the conditions make it easy for you to get back to the beach.

There is plenty of time before lunch and before Eric starts to blow, to take lessons and practice your light wind techniques.

Afternoons – around early lunch time, the wind veers to cross-shore, and builds to give some of the best windsurfing conditions you could possibly want.

To windward and level with nefeli, the water remains flat – ideal for blasting, and pulling off your advanced flat water manoeuvres.

Further downwind, the water gets more challenging, providing plenty of opportunity for big air and tricks.
