MORE INFO
Vassiliki gets so much attention because of the excellent windsurfing it’s very easy to bypass the other world class sports on offer here. Early morning sees very light winds, glassy flat water and an often empty bay, this combined creates perfect paddle sport conditions. Move slightly inland and you are presented with lush green mountains, olive groves and beautiful greek villages, so bring your trainers for superb mountain biking trails and routes.

Just after lunch the wind will switch cross-shore and build to anything between 4-7Bft. The wind carries on building until the sun sets behind the mountain meaning a full afternoon of windy windsurfing!
