Windsurfing Excursion in Sitia!

To be honest, the ultimate windsurfing spot isn’t exactly in Sitia itself but just nearby! Palekastro is a paradise for windsurfing enthusiasts and offers so much more. 

Before riding the waves, take a detour to the area’s Folklore Museum for a glimpse into authentic Cretan life. 

A stop for fresh seafood is essential, and this excursion wouldn’t be complete without visiting the beautiful town of Sitia—one of Crete’s hidden gems!
