Your Training Schedule

Your Dinghy and Windsurf Instructor Course training is conducted over two 3-hour slots, six days per week, between 10 am and 5 pm. You can also participate in two weekly fitness training sessions, including circuit training, mountain biking, yoga, SUP, and swimming. Your training days conclude with a debriefing at 5 pm, after which you can use the equipment alone or with other students.

You can explore the stunning island of Lefkada and downtown Vassiliki on Saturday, your day off from training. After sundown, the bars and restaurants of Vassiliki spring to life. You can also attend one of our legendary BBQs and shows. These should not be missed!

Our training programmes have proved so popular that many Watersports Nomad students decide to spend the remainder of the season in Greece rather than return home.

Whether you extend your stay or not, you’ll have an excellent experience in a beautiful location.

I whole heartedly recommend the windsurf instructor course and absolutely loved my time in Vasiliki. The instructors were really focused on getting our windsurfing up to scratch. I not only went from quite a beginner windsurfer to intermediate going advanced, i also gained my power boat qualification which opened up a whole new world of opportunity. We were definitely taught by the best ! Vass is a social hub full of talented people who all have similar interests and are always keen to help each other. we all gained new life long friends and useful connections in the industry. On the couse, you get 1 day off a week in which we would explore the beautiful island and all its gorgeous sights. 6 weeks of my life that i shall never forget and cherish always!

Had an incredible time on the fast track windsurfing course! I had so much fun on and off the water. The instructors were great with helping me improve both my windsurfing and teaching skills, and the dinners and themed nights out were so fun and I met some great people! Would recommend this beautiful place!

Probably the best summer of my life!! Coaches are lovely and scenery is beautiful. I did the fast track windsurfing instructor course as well as work experience after. Not only did my windsurfing improve, but also my confidence in speaking amongst strangers and various other soft skills. 10/10 would recommend :))

A great holistic program for watersports instructor training and experiencing Greece - with everything provided from fancy group dinners, nights out, theme parties, and early morning fitness, you get to see everything from sunrise to sunset! In terms of watersports, you have 24/7 access to the kit and so can advance in the sport quickly and easily become the best instructor you can be! They will also set you up with work experience after your training so that you can dive head first into the industry - just an example of how helpful they are throughout the whole course.
