Agios Georgios Naxos

Agios Georgios is a bay located on the western coast of Naxos in the Cycladic Islands. The bay faces northwest into the Aegean Sea, with a wide sandy beach backed by agricultural fields and scattered residential development. The spot functions as a partially enclosed bay with moderate fetch limited by the coastline configuration. Water conditions are typically choppy rather than organized swell, making this suitable for light-wind freestyle and progression rather than wave riding. Wind reliability is relatively low at 38.3%, with average winds around 10.8 knots, suggesting this spot works best during seasonal wind patterns (summer Etesian winds). The sandy bottom with shallow areas and visible sandbars provide forgiving conditions for beginners learning basic skills. Best conditions occur with easterly winds providing side-shore alignment. The protected bay nature and low average wave height (0.60m) make this primarily a flat-water progression spot rather than a swell destination. Ideal for early-season learning and when stronger coastal spots are too powerful.
