KITESURF IN RHODES

Rhodes island is one of the best kitesurfing destinations of Europe. That’s why we opened our kite school here. The near constant wind, warm and safe waters, beautiful beaches and amazing climate of this island have made it famous for wind and water sports. These same things mean it’s the ideal place to learn how to kite surf.

Our kite station and the guest house share the same area, where the waters and meltemi winds await you just outside our front door in Tholaros beach located just 5 min away from airport, Theologos village and 20 min from Rhodes town.

Greece 😉

Just got back from Greece. It was one of the most amazing vacetions in my life. Friendly people, good surroundings, warm water, Good weather and a wonderful kite center. The Difference between the Wet Skillz kite center Rhodes and the other kite center on Rhodos is, if you just look 500 meter up at the beach, then when the wind turn over 10 knots, there will be a past 100 kiters on the water, but on wetskillz there will be maximum 10 kiters on the water, and it is not just as touristy, as the others are, and it makes it somewhat easier and safer to kite there.At Wet Skillz kite center Rhodes there are, place to sleep, car rant, Continuously open restaurant and bar, Barbecue on the beach in the evening, kite school, rascue boats and ATV, and last of all Friendly people on the beach :)Thanks a lot to Petros Margaritis and all the others from the Wet skillz team, to give us at good time in greece.Petros Margaritis I still expect a Lamborgihini next year ;)KiteCPH.dkGo2fitness HolbækHolbæk LiftWet Skillz kite center RhodesVejlebo & Winther Peugeot HolbækOzone KitesPerspektiva it

Kitesurfing is not dangerous. You only have to learn it the right way. Everybody needs a lesson.

Don’t expect to ride at the end of the first day, but with the right equipment and a productive lesson plan, few days of hard work will make it happen…

Kitesurfing is not expensive. After buying your equipment you don’t have any other expenses. Fortunately the wind and the ocean is for free…

WIND & WATER CONDITIONS

The wind blows from North-West and West mainly, that’s why we have the ideal side shore conditions for learning kitesurfing.

The water has a board short temperature. It’s flat when there is light wind and it can get choppy in strong conditions. In early and late season (April and October) waves are created when North wind is blowing.

You can see an analytic forecast report for the area by clicking here windguru.

THEOLOGOS KITE BEACH

More than 2km of uncrowded coast line to ride, warm and safe waters. The constant and reliable winds defined Theologos Kite Beach as the best kite spot in Rhodes.

BEACH RULES

  • Kite surfing is considered as an extreme sport and should be practiced with extreme caution and with a good knowledge of safety instructions.
  • All kiters are to log in at the beach office before going out for their own safety .
  • Internationally recognised upwind right of way rules apply, or common sense when this cannot be achieved.
  • Please respect the different zones allocated for different levels of kiters and swimmers.
  • Learning should always be done under the supervision of an Authorized/certified Instructor.
  • WetSkillz staff have the right to stop any reckless or dangerous kiter and/or banning him from the beach with or without prior warning, and in some extreme cases has the authority to confiscate the equipment with collaboration with GREEK PORT POLICE.
  • Kiting in offshore conditions is not adviceable and any kiter going out does so at his own responsibility.
  • Make sure that you have packed away your lines once you have landed your kite , and make sure that your board, equipment bag is all placed closely together on the beach and not scattered around.
  • Kiters are requested kindly to give priority to beach goers as they don’t have the full understanding of the dangers or hazards of sitting or swimming in the kite surfing zone.
  • Swimmers and other beach users must remain clear of the kites and kitesurf zone.
  • If you cannot maintain an upwind line (e.g. if you are learning, or if the wind conditions are not suitable for your equipment), then kiting in a direct on-shore wind may mean that you should not kite on that day. Wait until the wind direction is cross/on-shore, so that you can make progress away from the shore.
  • In low wind conditions, it may not be safe for you to launch your kite. If there is not enough wind to effectively control the kite and it is dropping from the sky onto the beach and people, then you should consider landing the kite until the wind is sufficient to fly an inflatable kite. As a rough example, the minimum wind conditions required to fly an inflatable kite are typically 8 knots, and 6 knots for a foil kite.
  • You must make every effort to progress away from the beach after launching. Only come back to the beach when you intend to land. When kiting, and especially jumping, please stay at least one and a half times the length of your lines away from the beach (for most of us, this will be at least 45m).
  • If your skill level, the wind conditions, or your equipment means you cannot comply with this rule, then you should not launch your kite.
  • Don’t drink and ride.
