Windsurfing is suited to beginners and non-planning intermediates who will love the easy launching and wide open bay, as will the dinghy sailors.

The nearby Acarnanian Mountains provide superb cycling terrain. Challenging climbs on quiet roads and a great range of trails will have roadies and mountain bikers grinning from ear to ear. For a more relaxing experience on two wheels, venture along shady tracks to rural villages and secluded beaches. There are guided rides each day or the bikes are available for freeriding.

You’ll be combining a week at the beachclub with a week onboard a yacht, sailing the beautiful South Ionian coastline with a group of other yachts (also known as a flotilla). It’s great for all sailors, but especially so for beginners, who can join our ‘intro to yachting’ course. Contact us for more information! LocationThe delightful Greek village of Paleros is just ten minutes from the beachclub. Charming, quaint with lovely beaches, traditional restaurants and bars – you’ll be greeted with friendly smiles from the local residents. Lefkas and Preveza towns are also worth taking a trip to.
