Rhodes is well developed as a holiday destination and is popular with many people. Windsurfers are no exception. This makes Rhodes a good destination for an all round holiday. An additional benefit of Ixia is that it doesn't suffer from the aircraft noise that affects the resorts closer to the airport.
The windsurfing conditions in Ixia, Rhodes are general bump and jump. There can be some shorebreak and the chop and swell build up the further out you sail. The wind is cross shore from the left. As the wind builds up during the day, beginners are advised to practice and take their lessons in the morning when the water is flatter and the wind lighter.
