About the spot

This shallow bay at Agios Nikolaos is on the mainland opposite Lefkada. Summer thermals often bring side to side-onshore afternoon wind. Sheltered sections support freeriding and instruction, although depth and chop vary across the area.

Use the beach access by the local kite operators and ask which sections are assigned to lessons, independent riding and other users. Many Greek beaches share the name Agios Nikolaos; this listing refers specifically to the mainland venue near Vonitsa.
