Spot currently openAdvanced level 36.97 | 25.43

Overview

Agiassos is a small beach on the south coast of Naxos, the southernmost spot on the island. This isolated spot faces south and receives the Meltemi after it wraps around the southwestern tip of Naxos, arriving from NW/W cross-shore. Conditions are similar to neighboring Pyrgaki: potentially gusty wind, wild setting, and total self-sufficiency required. Agiassos is a discovery spot for advanced riders exploring southern Naxos.
