Nektarios

I am a local. I grew up in Santorini and I’m doing water sports, specifically slalom windsurfing foil, and I am doing water sports the last 25 years. So I do have a lot of experience, teaching about 10 years and been on the water 25 years.

“Amazing wingfoiling experience in a variety of conditions! Nektarios was super friendly and helpful. I was able to switch gear during the sessions to adapt to the changing conditions and even explore different spots to chase the best waves. Really looking forward to coming back next year!”

“Had an amazing time paddle boarding then snorkeling with a boat tether back. Fun way to spend an afternoon with Harry who was a great teacher and showed us the local fish and birds. Very patient with us and we felt like we were in good hands. One of the highlights of our trip!”

“Unforgetable experience! I tried windsurf at Nemely school and it was the best experience i could possibly get. Nektarios teached me everything i needed to practice this sport by myself, and feel safe. He's probably the best teacher you can find, verry nice and patient and he explained everything so well that i am confident to pratice windsurf from now on. Thank you Nektarios!”

“My first lesson of windsurfing was in Mykonos this costed me 160 euros for 1:30 hours. Then i came here to santorini and found Nemely windsurf centre. To my surprise i got for almost the same price 4 hours of private lessons and 1 hour extra to go by yourself. The teachers are amazing cause i was able to go on my own after just those 4 hours knowing all the skills needed. I would highly advise to go to them if you are interested in learning a new skill on the water no matter what level you are on.”

“Nektarios and Harry looked after my 12 year old and I for 2 x 2 hour wing foil lessons. My son picked it up quickly and was ready to move to a foil board (from beginners surf board) but I need longer to master the foil skills. Both were friendly and very knowledgable and is recommend them for lessons.”
