Thalasea Sports Center Naxos

Excellent kite spot and great club right at the beach with a nice bar and restaurant for lunch. I was warmly welcomed and with Max I had a very professional (and patient 😊) instructor.

Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit den kitekursen

Toller Spot, nette Leute und gutes Material. Zudem eine gute Gastronomie direkt dabei (Kellnerin sehr unfreundlich, alle anderen top) und ein Supermarkt um die Ecke. Komplette Empfehlung und ich komme sehr gerne wieder!!!

I took some private classes and my friends rented the gear. Really professional and equipped center! Also, the restaurant in there is really good, so having some nice lunch after the kite session was the highlight of the trip!

It seems the guy managing the kite center at Thalasea has a big ego issue and he spreads bad vibes, his wife though tries to cover his weirdness! after the second bad experience went to Kitelife and had a fantastic one !

J’ai réservé un cours privé de 2h de kite niveau intermédiaire avec Fao, j’ai adoré, il a m’a donné de bons conseils et a été très patient, le cours était en français, ce qui était un gros + pour moi, je recommande!

Absolutely great time spent to you guys!! Thanks for your professional support and cooperation for beginners like me!! A big hug from Italy A presto!! Gabriele & Elisa

Great spot for windsurfing and kite surfing and very nice team always there to help. I enjoyed my stay in Naxos combining beach time, sightseeing and on the water

Beautiful property, great equipment, and friendly staff. I cannot recommend this place enough! I hope to be back again very soon. Thanks to the entire team at Thalasea Sports 🙏

El dueño es amable pero algunos de los instructores no tienen ningunas ganas de trabajar. En el bar son muy antipáticos.

Good people. Rented a kitesurf set. They have modern equipment and de spot is nice. You pay afterwards and only for the hours you used the equipment which is nice.

Great sessions, great staff, great food!!! 💯

Fantastic surf conditions, great gear, and an incredibly friendly and welcoming team!

Super nice & easy going, great equipment for rental - felt safe and it was a lot of fun!

I had my first two kitesurfing sessions with Johanne at Thalasea, and it was such an unforgettable experience! Johanne is such a great and patient instructor. I enjoyed kitesurfing so much and Johanne really inspired me to keep learning.

Ich habe 3x 2 Einheiten bei Lucas absolviert und war absolut begeistert! Komplette Ausrüstung ist vor Ort vorhanden und im Kurspreis inkludiert. Das gesamte Team ist mega freundlich und kompetent. Als kompletter Anfänger kann ich behaupten, dass der Strand zum Kennenlernen und Einsteigen super geeignet ist und ich mich sehr sicher und gut betreut gefühlt habe. Absolute Empfehlung, beste Grüße an das gesamte Team✌️☀️🔥 Stefan

Best Spot for Kitesurfing in Naxos, relaxed athmosphere, Good Restaurant

Mit 54 Jahren habe ich dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal Kitesurfen ausprobiert, und das Team der Kitesurfschule hat mich immer ermutigt und unterstützt. Ich hatte eine tolle Zeit bei euch und habe mich sehr wohlgefühlt! 😊 Besonders möchte ich mich bei meinem Kite-Instructor Lucas bedanken. Er ist super nett, sehr geduldig und erklärt alles wirklich ausführlich. Wenn ich etwas nicht verstanden habe, hat er es mir ohne Probleme auch mehrmals erklärt. 😄 Und er lächelt immer.👍😊 Man merkt, dass er seinen Job mit viel Freude macht. Vielen, vielen Dank für alles! Ich komme sehr gerne wieder! 😊🌞🇬🇷🏄‍♂️

Nous avons effectué une semaine de cours de kitesurf tout était parfait! La qualité des cours, la gentillesse de l’équipe et leur professionnalisme. On reviendra c’est sur !

Spot fantastico, molto spesso vento forte per divertirsi. Staff eccezionale, disponibilissimo ed efficientissimo. Materiale top. Nuovo e ben tenuto.

Super Kitespot. Personal sehr hilfsbereit und unkompliziert. Gerne wieder!

Profesionali instruktori, veoma lako za ucenje, vetar konstantan i uvek dosta dobar. Surfshop ima sve sto vam je potrebno da kupite ako vam nesto fali od opreme i cene su pristupacne. Svaka preporuka

Ich habe hier angerufen, um Kite Equipment für einen Tag ausleihen zu können. Im Telefonat würde ich erst mal gefragt, wie erfahren ich bin. Das ist an sich sehr fair und gut so. Jedoch als ich meine Erfahrung geschildert hab, wurde mir direkt 1 Stunde mit Kite-Lehrer aufgeschwatzt, dass sie mich ohne die nicht fahren lassen und erst nach der Stunde geschaut wird, ob ich dann nach eigenständig fahren darf. Dabei hatte ich das Gefühl, dass sie unbedingt Geld machen wollten und nicht so drauf geachtet haben, was tatsächlich mein Skill Level angeht Bei einer anderen Kite Schule an dem gleichen Spot war das Vorgehen anders. Dort konnte man einfach etwas ausleihen und ein Kite Lehrer ist mit einem Strand gegangen und hat geschaut, ob man schon eigenständig fahren kann noch kurz ein paar Tipps gegeben (sehr hilfreich und nett). Dann durfte ich noch mal raus. Er hat geschaut, ob es dann gut klappt, was der Fall war, und ich konnte den Tag eigenständig fahren. Über die Ausrüstung oder das sonstige Personal kann ich nicht viel sagen, da ich eben nicht zu denen hingegangen bin, sondern zu einer anderen Kite-Schule. Dort habe ich eine bessere Rezension hinterlassen.

Super semaine et bonne progression en kite avec Fao comme moniteur !! Merci pour l'accompagnement!

Excellent kite school! And very nice place

I've went to kite at Mikri Vigla (2h rental) with Thalasea team. Everything went well. Communication is smooth and easy with them. The spot is a bit more difficult than Paros (which is really flat). Would definitely come back !

All the equipment is brand new the teachers are perfect. The place has a restaurant with actually good food. showers. Everything was smooth and perfect.

Excellent materiel professeur au niveau (FAO excellent) une belle equipe pour la location avec Andrea et Pascal de Tarascon Patrick

Was stuck at the Naxos marina for a few days because of the Meltami, came across this place we were out riding around. Rented gear for an hour great spot, fun waves lots of people learning to kiteboard. I ride Cabrinha kites, they had a great selection. Cost €55, that’s around $90 Canadian for an hour, costs less the more you go. But an hour was good enough for me to check of kiting in Greece box.

Great teacher (FAO) and staff. Was up by the end of two lessons and water starting and going out and back by 3 lessons. Easy location as well

Sehr professionelles und herzliches Kitecenter. Schon die Anmeldung vor dem Urlaub war unkompliziert und besonders vertrauenswürdig (deutsch und englisch). Vor Ort wurden wir dann von Jasmin super freundlich empfangen. Top Material, schneller unkomplizierter Wechsel der Kite-Größen und vor allem ein sehr gutes Sicherheitsgefühl durch die aufmerksame Beobachtung der Bucht und das jederzeit bereite Boot. Auch das Team am Strand um Andreas war jederzeit aufmerksam, hilfsbereit und wirklich engagiert – genau so, wie man es sich an einer guten Kitestation wünscht. Dazu ein schöner sauberer Sandstrand und die gemütliche Taverne direkt daneben. Ich hatte vor dem Urlaub mehrere Kitecenter auf Naxos recherchiert und bin mir sicher, hier die richtige Wahl getroffen zu haben.

Definitely the best one stop shop in Mikri Vigla! Professional team, modern equipment and well assorted shop, tasty beach taverna with lovely staff and vibe! Certainly one of my all time favourites! 🤙🇬🇷🌊

Ein wunderschöner Kite-Spot mit tollen Bedingungen und einer super Atmosphäre. Dazu großartige Lehrer, leckeres Essen und ein rundum hervorragender Service – von der Organisation bis zum Verleih. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohlgefühlt und kommen definitiv wieder!

I had a fantastic experience at the kite centre. I initially booked a two-hour lesson but they were understanding and allowed me to continue kiting with rented equipment. This honesty was appreciated and the price was reduced without any negotiation since I was already equipped. They also built my confidence to ride independently which was great. I’ll definitely be back.

Super spot de kite et équipe au top ! Profs impliqués parlant plusieurs langues

We had a great experience at Thalasea! The whole team is incredibly friendly and kind, always ready to help and make you feel comfortable. They are also very honest and fair when it comes to prices, which we really appreciated! The kite spot is beautiful, with a huge beach and plenty of space. There is also a nice area sheltered from the wind, perfect for anyone who just wants to relax while the others are kitesurfing. The beach bar is also really lovely and a great place to chill, have a drink and enjoy the atmosphere! We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend Thalasea. We hope to come back very soon!

Best coach (Max) and really good school to learn

Always a pleasure to come down to Mikri and rent Kite gears from Pascal, Jasmine and Andrea's team ! on top of that you have the delicious food prepared by Nikos and his team ! we simply loved it

I rented kite equipment from Kite Center Naxos by Thalasea Sports for over a week and was very happy with the quality of the gear. The spot in Mikri Vigla also offered very reliable wind conditions and was perfect for kitesurfing. My girlfriend took a course and received excellent, individual 1-on-1 instruction. Overall, a very professional and highly recommended kite center – we will definitely come back!

Amazing experience at Thalassaia — consistent wind, modern equipment, and knowledgeable instructors. Well organized, professional, and relaxed. Special thanks to Fao for the excellent coaching. Highly recommend!

Super organisierte Kite/Wing/Schule direkt am Strand gelegen! Das Team rund um den Schulungsbetrien ist professionell, die Lehrer sind alle samt umsichtig und geduldig und führen die Schüler sicher in den Kitesport ein! Großen Dank an das gesamte Team und die hervorragenden Lehrer Jonas, Niko und Jacques … c u next year again !!🤙

Excellent club de kitesurf, très bien situé dans la baie de Mikri Vigla. Équipe top, aussi bien les instructeurs qu’à l’accueil. Agréable restaurant sur place pour les cafés, déjeuners, cocktails avec jolie vue sur les ailes de kite. Très beau spot de kite, eau turquoise et sable blanc. Merci à toute l’équipe Thalasea pour ce très bon séjour !

Tolle Kiteschule an einem tollen und nicht überfüllten spot. Super engagiert und Familien-feeling mit dem ganzen Team

Great monitors for our different levels. The club itself is very nice and very friendly staff. Thanks to Lou for getting all the admin and information done! We definitely recommend!

Extremely Professionals, amazing school, and I will come back to continue 🩵

Great kiting centre in Naxos on the main kite beach at the south end of Plaka - Mikri Villa. With a great cafe restaurant attached to relax between sessions. Rahel was a brilliant calm skilled and patient teacher who really helped me get to the next level in the challenging high winds and choppy waters. Highly recommend the school and the spot. Matt

Ik heb een paar dagen achter elkaar lessen gevolgd en heb een goede basis meegekregen, er is goed aangeleerd hoe je met de materialen om moet gaan en kite controle werd erg goed uitgelegd. De mensen van de school zijn erg relaxed en sympathiek. Al met al een fijne school en een goede ervaring!

Fijne kite verhuur en de lessen zijn goed verzorgd met relaxed personeel!

Best kite center in Mikri Vigla! If you’re looking to improve your skills, whether you’re a beginner or an advanced rider, this is definitely the right place. Great instructors, professional service, and an amazing spot. Highly recommended! 🤙

Centro molto bello, Jasmin molto cordiale e gentile, Andrea molto competente e sempre d’aiuto e con Nicola lezioni sempre utili e consigli preziosi. Grazie mille alla prossima.

I wholeheartedly recommend this school! A huge plus for the organization: the administrator is always responsive, and scheduling lessons is super flexible and easy at almost any time. Big thanks for the focus on safety as well the equipment and protective gear are in top-notch condition, which makes you feel completely secure. But the absolute highlight for me was my instructor, Joanna! I was really second-guessing myself and was terrified of both the sea and the kite, but Joanna turned out to be 100% the right person for me. She’s a true pro and amazingly empathetic. Everything was explained so clearly, with zero boring theory or confusing technical jargon. Step by step, gently, and without a bit of stress, she helped me understand the mechanics and overcome my fears. I walked away with unforgettable emotions and pure joy!

Amazing community, amazing coaches , everything was explained greatly , and a great place to visit! Would recommend

Gabriel was amazing he taught us everything we need to know, he was very patient. I loved kitesurfing cant wait to be back here

I had an amazing experience learning kitesurfing! I learned a lot during the lessons and, most importantly, I had a lot of fun. My instructor Nico was really friendly, patient, and professional, which made the whole experience even better. He explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable and confident on the water. I would definitely recommend these lessons to anyone who wants to learn kitesurfing. I had a great time and would absolutely do it again!

Cours avec Jacques au top ! J’ai bien progressé aux transitions, c’est cool d’avoir une instructeur qui parle français

Wonderful spot, friendly staff, there is also a great bar. All kiters should try it!!!!

Great Team and Equipment. Super service at probably the best wind/kitesurfing and wing-foiling beach in the Cyclades. Right next a very good restaurant. Could not be better

We had an amazing 12 days on beautiful Naxos, staying in Mikri Vigla and kitesurfing with the Thalasea Kite Center. Jacques is a fantastic teacher. I learned a lot during our lessons and, most importantly, gained much more confidence for my independent sessions in Mikri Vigla. His guidance made a real difference. The whole Thalasea crew was wonderful — professional, friendly, encouraging, and always creating a great atmosphere. It was a pleasure spending our days with them. We absolutely loved our time in Mikri Vigla and would highly recommend Thalasea Kite Center to anyone looking for great kitesurfing, excellent instruction, and a genuinely welcoming crew. We’ll definitely be back! 🤙

Excellent conseils de Jacques. J’ai bien progressé et beaucoup mieux compris comment fonctionne un kite. L’équipe est top. Rendez-vous pris très facilement via le site et WhatsApp. J’ai même pu choisir la langue du moniteur. J’ai adoré.

Sehr gut organisiert und sehr kompetente Instruktoren! Hat Spaß gemacht gemacjt

Un grand merci à Lou pour son accueil et son aide en amont de notre arrivée. Un immense bravo également à Jacques et Pénélope pour leur grand professionnalisme et leur pédagogie lors de nos sessions de kitesurf avec mon beau-fils 15h et on tient déjà debout ! Naviguant depuis mon plus jeune âge (windsurf, caravelle, laser...) et ayant côtoyé de nombreux coachs, je peux vous assurer que ces deux-là sont de véritables pépites ! Ils sortent vraiment du lot par leur méthode et leur passion. Je recommande à 200%

Great experience! The school is amazing, they adapt to your schedule and time. Gabriel was an amazing teacher, I had so much fun learning how to kite! I would definitely go back

Amazing kite spot with a super friendly atmosphere. I loved that you can safely store your own gear at the center, which makes everything so convenient. The food is delicious, the staff is welcoming, and the overall vibe is relaxed and cozy. Definitely recommend!

I had 7 sessions with Fao and couldn’t have been happier. The instruction, equipment, the location and the weather were all amazing. I will be back next year. Thank you to the whole team.

We had an amazing experience with Thalasea! The school is well organized, with excellent facilities and professional service from start to finish. The instructors are outstanding, patient, and always willing to share detailed, practical tips that really helped us improve our kitesurfing skills. Their coaching made a huge difference. The restaurant is another highlight, delicious food, a relaxed atmosphere, and a super friendly team. We loved being able to enjoy our meals while watching all the colorful kites on the water. We spent almost our entire vacation here, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Thank you to the whole team for making our holiday so memorable. We can’t wait to come back!

Amazing service súper equipe professionel gentil et excelente spot avec de súper condition du vent top!!! Gracias a bientot

Great Kite sessions for me (52) and my 2 kids (17 & 15) in Mikri thanks to Flisvos kite center with lovely instructors, always positive with good progress made 👍👍 Plenty of RRD material to choose from, well located. And a good yet pricey Italian restaurant next door.

Learned to kite in 4 days

I came to Thalasea with a real fear of the water and a lot of anxiety about kitesurfing. Then I met Asia, a fantastic Polish instructor, who somehow worked her magic. She is patient, calm, incredibly supportive and absolutely brilliant at what she does. She is the first instructor who truly helped me overcome my fear of the water and actually start enjoying kitesurfing. I never thought I would make this much progress or feel this confident. If you are looking for someone who will make you feel safe, understood and capable, I cannot recommend Asia highly enough!

Mon expérience concerne uniquement les cours de wingfoil : Les + : l’école est sur le plage, équipe très dispo sur whatsapp, moniteur très sympa Les - : matériel limité (quelques planches dispo, pas toutes les tailles, il faut réserver la planche à l’avance pour utiliser celle que l’on souhaite), manque de conseils techniques, les séances commencent parfois en retard mais se terminent bien à l’heure Globalement un peu déçue de mon expérience, nous avons fini par changer d’école

Hatte wie immer eine super Zeit. Jasmin und Andrea machen ihren Job mit Leidenschaft- das spürt man. Toller Kiteservice. Musste nicht einmal meinen Kite auf oder abbauen👍🏻😊 danke sophiea 🙏 Mega Spot! Kann ich mit bestem Gewissen weiterempfehlen 👍🏻👏🏻 Bis bald! LG Johannes
