The Golden Beach of windsurfing

A long, unbroken sweep of golden sand on the southeast coast, with clear water. The reliable Meltemi has made it one of Greece’s top windsurf and kitesurf destinations.

Adjacent New Golden Beach has hosted the PWA Windsurfing World Cup since 1993 — the only professional windsurf race in Greece. The beach is partly organised, with schools and rental centres.

About this beach

Chrysi Akti is oriented towards the south-east, so it usually has natural cover from northerly, north-easterly and north-westerly winds. Orientation only reflects which way the coast faces, not confirmed shelter, so check wind and waves in the app before you go.

Chrysi Akti has sand underfoot with shallow, gently shelving water — handy for families with young children.

For amenities, Chrysi Akti has an organised beach, a beach bar, sunbeds, natural shade, parking nearby and food nearby.
