The Meltemi mecca of the Cyclades: Parthena beach at Mikri Vigla, where the channel between Naxos and Paros squeezes the wind 5 to 10 knots above the neighbouring bays. The Flisvos Kite Centre works the bay and the Hotel Orkos Beach sleeps you 50 metres from the sand.

The Kitesurf Camp verdict When the Meltemi runs, Mikri Vigla is the windiest classroom in the Cyclades: the Paros channel adds free knots and the afternoon rarely disappoints in July and August. Greek island summer with wind you can plan a holiday around — and tavernas at the end of the session.
