Prasonisi Club Hotel in Catavia

Katavia lies on the southern tip of the island of Rhodes. Below, 8km to the south, lies the stunning Prasonisi Beach.

Katavia is a charming, traditional village offering everything we don't usually find in large tourist destinations. The friendly local Greeks, delicious traditional food, and proximity to the windsurfing mecca of Prasonisi are undoubtedly its strengths and guarantee unforgettable moments.

Most of the tourists who live in Katavia are surfers who spend their days swimming. In the evenings, the atmosphere is incredibly relaxing.

It's worth noting that Katavia has a permanent population of 180, and the entire town is under strict protection by the Greek Conservator of Monuments. Furthermore, Katavia boasts two grocery stores known as supermarkets, an Orthodox church, four restaurants, a children's playground, and a school playground.

The hotel offers excellent conditions for a relaxing break from the wind and sand of Prasonisi. We offer rooms for 3-4 people. Each room has a private bathroom, air conditioning, and a refrigerator. The spacious patio is the venue for our gatherings, evening activities, and morning meals. Our buffet breakfasts will satisfy every guest's hunger and appetite.

For dinner, we head to the famous Louis Tavern, located right next to the hotel. Every day, the kitchen prepares a special meal for us (including vegetarian options).

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 of 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 matched to the level of advancement (Beginner Group / Intermediate Group / Advanced Group / Freestyle – Wave Group). We train according to modern programs and always adapt them to current conditions. Our staff consists of instructors with extensive experience in both sailing and teaching.

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

Participants go into the water in subgroups with their instructors. Each participant is marked with a camp T-shirt. The water area is supervised by lifeguards and safety boats.

Both complete beginners and very advanced individuals can join the camp. Our instructors are prepared for every option. The only requirement for participants is the ability to swim.

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