Few holidays get teenagers off their phones like a week of watersports. In the calm, clear water of our Greek beach clubs the whole family can have a go, from a first wobble on a paddleboard to a teenager planing along on a windsurfer, with the kit free to use and instructors on hand.
What watersports can families try?
The full range: stand-up paddleboarding, windsurfing, dinghy and catamaran sailing, kayaking and wild swimming. At Lixouri Bay Beach Club the use of all of it is included, so children can try several over a week and find the one that clicks.
Is it suitable for beginners and children?
Yes. The bays are calm in the morning, which is ideal for first lessons and younger children, and there is instruction on hand. Confident teenagers can progress quickly to windsurfing and sailing in the steadier afternoon breeze.
Where is best for family watersports?
The sheltered Lixouri peninsula in Kefalonia for calm, shallow water, and Stira Bay on Evia for its consistent summer winds, which windsurfers love. For the full picture of conditions and kit, see our windsurfing and watersports guide.
