Activity description
Falasarna main beach is ideal for SUP activities. The sandy beach with waist-high water is a perfect playground for the first steps in wave riding. The Surfisland station provides a full range of paddleboards for all levels and needs. Everyone can have fun in the water with safety, from the young kids to adults.
Flat conditions: When the wind is light, the beach is so calm that you feel as if you are flying on the surface. Flat water, sandy bottom, crystal clear sea, everything is ideal for a SUP cruise!
Wave conditions: When the wind is west, north-west, there are waves from 0,5m to 2m high. The spot is a beach break with sandy seafloor and waist to shoulder high deep water.
Beginner SUP lessons are done with specialized beginner equipment. In this lesson, you learn the basic theory and safety issues. At the end of the course, you will be an independent rider, knowing how to paddle, how to turn around and cruise in flat water. If you are a group of friends you can take the beginner lessons on a group of two up to five people together.
Intermediate SUP lessons are considered a step up lesson on wave Sup surfing. You will learn how to pick the right wave, how to gain speed from the wave, how to paddle with the right technique and correct your stance for better performance on the wave. Here your confidence is built up and you are ready for the next level. Intermediate lessons are private.
Depending on the weather conditions you can choose either the Falasarna beach station or the Elafonisi station. Surfisland operates in both stations. Falasarna beach is ideal most of the time for SUP, but in case it's very windy and wavy you can go to the Elafonisi station.
