Nikiana: a small Greek beach club with big watersports

Nestled on the shores of the Ionian, Nikiana Beach Club blends relaxation with activity, so it suits sailors of every level. With just 32 rooms and a maximum of 80 guests, the club feels warm and welcoming, so friendships form quickly at every age.

Above all, the heart of the club is its watersports beach. Here you can go dinghy sailing, windsurfing and paddleboarding, while green Greek islands provide the backdrop. A large fleet of equipment is ready for you, as well as experienced RYA instructors who love to share their sport.

The sunny village of Nikiana is also worth exploring, on the beautiful island of Lefkas. Seafarer’s Lefkas yachts are based here too, so you can easily combine a week at the club with a week of sailing on a Sail and Stay holiday.

Sail freely or join a course

Sailors and windsurfers can take out any of our equipment whenever the weather allows, or join one of the many courses and tuition sessions for every level. During the school holidays, children and teenagers also enjoy the small, safe setting and the water-based kids clubs, which are a great way to make friends.

After a day on or off the water, the bar serves cocktails and cold beers, so it is the perfect place to swap stories. On certain evenings we also host club social events, where the atmosphere is warm and lively and the conversation flows.

The clubs run every week during the standard school holidays, and we sign up all children automatically. Each group then spends a morning or an afternoon on the water every day, from Monday to Saturday.
