Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Flisvos surf center

Known for windsurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NW, so wind from the SE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 20°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for windsurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NW. Wind from the NW blows onshore, wind from the SE blows out to sea, and wind from the NE or SW runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 350 m out (1 in 34). The sea is about 16°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 24°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). For windsurfing at intermediate level the best months are usually July and August, with about 6 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is Naxos. Within 5 km we also list 3 wind sports spots.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
