Planet Allsports Windsurfing

By , About.com Guide

Small But International Company:

Planet Allsports, formerlay Planet Windsurfing, operates locations all over the world, opening up some locations as the seasons change, and closing others temporarily. Outside of Greece, they also offer windsurfing in Brazil, Egypt, Spain, and other places around the world.

Hey, They're Located on a Perfect Windsurfing Spot:

Surprise, surprise. These guys don't open up unless they've found the perfect spot. They now offer windsurfing on the islands of Kos and Karpathos. Previous locations included Rhodes, Mykonos and Lefkada, so check to see what's active for your year.

Open May Through October:

...but they admit the best season is June through September. The opening date in May and the closing date in October may vary.

Planning Ahead? Try the Online Windsurfing Booking Feature:

But don't worry if you can't book ahead - they bring literally hundreds of riggs to the most popular locations.

Planet Windsurfing:

While windsurfing is not that physically demanding, participants should be good swimmers and ready for the possibility of being tipped over. Winds in Greece can be unpredictable, so even if you're relatively experienced, Greece may have some windy tricks up its sleeve, as many experienced yachters discover every year.
