Hazards

STRONG WIND The afternoon thermal here is famously reliable and can build strong — a step up from the gentle morning conditions.
CROWDS One of Europe's best-known windsurf bays — busy with schools and rental traffic in season.
BAY TRAFFIC Boat traffic and windsurf/kite lessons share the bay — stay aware, especially near the launch areas.
WIND GRADIENT Wind is famously light near the shore and builds further out in the bay — a well-known local quirk worth understanding before heading out.

Local knowledge

Best tide Mid tide · rising
Peak season Apr–Oct · Thermal wind-swell, light morning building to strong afternoon
Swell key Local thermal wind-swell · Bay with a well-known wind gradient (light inshore, stronger further out) · Not the Meltemi — a westerly thermal
Level Intermediate · Best known globally as a windsurf teaching bay
Dawn patrol Morning is calm and great for beginners; the real wind-sports session builds from midday onward.
