Agia Anna Beach (Evia)

Agia Anna Beach (Evia) is a very long, big sandy coastline on Evia’s northeast side, known for clean water and open exposure. The beach provides a spacious launch area with easy access and generally ample room to rig and launch. For wind sports, summer conditions are dominated by the Meltemi—seasonal north/northeast wind that is typically strong and reliable from late morning through the afternoon and often into the evening. Winds are commonly reported in the roughly 15–25 knots range, with wind building later in the morning and peaking in the afternoon; this makes it a strong destination for consistent sessions during the core summer months. Kitesurfing is a standout fit here, combining the strong summer wind with a wide sandy launch, plus some wave potential and chop. Windsurfing and freeride/wave styles also do well when the North-East wind increases. Wingfoiling is workable thanks to deep water, though initial launch can be challenging due to shore break and chop. Surfing is possible when strong North-East winds generate wind-swell, but it’s primarily a wind-sport location. Surf conditions are described as beach-break, with mushy waves and average overall quality; stronger winds can produce waves while also adding significant chop and making bigger swell sessions harder to manage from the water.
