Prasonisi is the most beautiful sandy beach on the island of Rhodes. Located on the southern tip of the island (8 km from our hotel – a 10-minute shuttle ride). This is where the Aegean and Mediterranean seas meet. It's one of the few places in the world with such excellent conditions for practicing these sports.

We sail in a bay on the leeward side of the beach, where we have a base with equipment and a motorboat belay. The water surface is flat, which facilitates progress and makes it easier for beginners to take their first steps.

The wind blows daily at force 4-6 from June to the end of September. The water temperature allows for comfortable swimming in a short wetsuit, and in August, often in just shorts and a UV t-shirt.

The equipment base is right by the water, while in the school building (100 m from the sea) you will find a place to rest during breaks between classes, a shower with fresh water, changing rooms, and hammocks.

On the windward side of the beach, there's a bay where waves 1-1.5 meters high build on the sandy shallows. These conditions are perfect for our advanced campers to learn how to jump and ride waves.

Hi-tech equipment:

At the Prasonisi Center windsurfing base, participants have access to the latest equipment from renowned brands (Fanatic, Starboard, Severne). We select boards and sails according to physical conditions, skills and wind strength.

We conduct windsurfing training in groups tailored to their skill level (Beginner Group / Intermediate Group / Advanced Group / Freestyle – Wave Group). We use modern training programs, always adapting them to the prevailing conditions. Our instructors have extensive experience in both sailing and teaching.

Before going into the water, we thoroughly discuss the tasks and techniques and practice the given elements on the shore.

Participants enter the water in subgroups with their instructors. Each participant is identified by a camp t-shirt. The area is monitored by lifeguards and lifeboats.

The camp is suitable for both beginners and advanced divers. Our instructors are prepared for every skill level. The only requirement is that participants be able to swim.

At the end of the camp, participants receive certificates confirming the skills they have acquired.
