No Wind in Greece paros ? What to do ?

Postby flysurfing » Thu Jul 09, 2015 3:05 pm

Hello guys,

i'll be in paros from 11th till 19th and booked / paid hotel there.

I found on windguru that it will be like 8 knots for the whole trip.

Is there any other spot nearby that is windy or can we expect some kind of venturi / thermal wind now showing on windguru ?

Thanks for your answer

Paros there is going to be wind from saturday till tuesday. For the next days I cant know, (although for your last day 19th prediction is 30-40 knots) but usually the thermal will work. wind guru for summer prediction is useless

and if wind gets less in Paros, at Naxos 1 hour with the ferry (and you can go back at night) we have always 3-4 knots minimun more here

Kos is ALWAYS windy .... Psalidi spot is uncrowded with trade(meltemi),thermal and venturi effect..

Perfect food and cheap hotels and flights !!!

check the forecast again....meletemi is on!!!!! this is from the pro version of windguru... if there is no wind in Pounda go to the other side Tsoukalia ( waves ) or to New Golden Beach ( offshore be careful )

Explore the island on a moped. I was there last summer. It's really nice. Great view from the top of the mountain

And if Ya knew how to fly a PG ; you'd be soaring in the thermal heat
from the top of that mountain ; it only takes a bit of wind to launch, and do that !

It's the reason Why i don't do just ONE sport .

I belive that mykonos is always the strongest wind out of all the greek islands. I was there about this time last year and had 4/7 kiteable days around 25-35knots.
