Vasiliki

Surf School is located next to the picturesque village of Vasiliki, on the island of Lefkada in Greece. Our location offers a stunning backdrop for your windsurfing, wingfoiling, or stand-up paddleboarding adventure, with crystal-clear waters and a warm Mediterranean climate.

Vasiliki is known for its strong and steady winds, making it the perfect place to learn and practice these exciting water sports. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider, you’ll find everything you need here to have a safe, fun, and rewarding experience.

We’re easy to find, located just a short walk from the village center, right on the beach. Members of the family that do not do watersports can sit at our pool bar with a view to the sea and enjoy seeing their partners or young ones have their fun on the water.

We would be very happy to have you around!

OUR MISION

At Surf School, our values guide every aspect of our business. We are   committed to providing an inclusive environment where everyone, feels welcome and valued. We are doing our best to build seasonal teams that consist of equal numbers of male and female instructors, ensuring a diverse and balanced atmosphere for our guests to learn and grow.

Our dedication to protecting the environment extends beyond our day-to-day operations. We keep renewing our fleet with more and more climate-neutral( CO2-neutral) equipment, including our boards, sails, and wings, to minimize our carbon footprint. We keep recycling our well maintained gear by selling it at affordable prices after the season, so that it keeps on giving for the years to come. Additionally, we take great care to maintain a safe and sustainable playground for our guests and the local community.

As a business, we strive to support the local economy by hiring local staff whenever possible. Our goal is to foster the growth of the local surfing community by encouraging more people to experience the joy of windsurfing and foiling in our beautiful location.

In the future, we aim to further strengthen our commitment to sustainability and inclusivity. We plan to enhance our environmental initiatives, such as waste reduction and energy conservation, to ensure that our beautiful surroundings remain pristine for generations to come. Additionally, we plan to create more programs and opportunities for local youth to discover the world of water sports, nurturing a love for windsurfing and foiling among the community.

At Surf School, we  recognize that our business is about more than just water sports; it’s about creating a positive impact on our environment, community, and guests. With these goals in mind, we look forward to shaping a bright future for our school, our guests, and the beautiful area we call home.
