Windsurfing in Trianda / Ialyssos - Rhodes
Spot type: windsurfing only
Spot
The names of this spot sometimes create confusion. Trianda/Trianta and Ialyssos/Ialysos are four names for exactly the same place.
On our web site, we call the spot 'Trianda'. Trianda is the second northernmost spot on the west coast of Rhodes.
Because of the narrow and crowded beaches, there are almost no kitesurfers in Trianda.
As usual in the north of Rhodes, in the afternoon the wind speed increases to 4 to 6 Bft. The wind direction is sideshore. In the
morning, the conditions are suitable for beginners.
The beach of Trianda is long and consists largely of gravel. There are lots of sun beds and parasols.
There are three sections of the beach with windsurfing centers:
The Western Spot
The Surf Center Meltemi-Power is located here. This Surf Center offers storage for your windsurfing equipment.
The Eastern Spot
The Surf Centers ProCenter 1 and 2 (aka Hightech-Center) are located here.
The Beginner Spot
This spot is located a little further to the east. The coastline bends slightly inward here. This results in smaller waves and lower
wind speeds at this location. Near the shore, there is a zone of shallow water. The area near the shore is suited for beginners.
Further out on the sea wind and waves reach full strength again.
On this beach, you can find the Surf Center ProCenter 3 'Windmill'.
Trianda / Ialyssos
Trianda is the second largest tourist area in Rhodes after Faliraki. Accordingly, there are a lot of entertainment offers
for tourists. Just 7 km away you can find even more options for nightlife, shopping, etc. in Rhodes Town.
