How can you rent equipment?

At Prasonisi Center, you can easily and conveniently rent equipment via email.
Before contacting us, please take a look at the available models on PrasonisiCenter.com.
Then, show us a specific model of the board and tell us your preferred rental dates.
Alternatively, you can ask us for help choosing the right equipment for your skill level and the weather conditions.
Only the specific model of the board is reserved.
You may freely switch between sails for windsurfing and wings for wingfoiling, depending on the current wind conditions.
A deposit is required to confirm your reservation.

How can I change my equipment?

At the Prasonisi Center, you can easily change your equipment at any time during your rental period.
How does it work?
You can change your equipment at any time. The new board model must be available (it cannot be reserved by another client).
Simply notify the beach or school office staff of your desire to change, and they will help you choose an appropriate board model for the current wind conditions and your preferences.

What if the rented board gets damaged?

At the Prasonisi Center, you don't have to worry about accidentally damaging the board.
The rental price includes insurance for damage to Prasonisi Center equipment.
If your equipment is damaged, please report it to our staff as soon as possible.
We will take the damaged equipment out of service and try to provide you with an equivalent or similar board while it is being repaired.
Remember that windsurfing and wingfoil boards "take on water" when damaged. One of the first steps in the repair process is to completely dry the board, which we do using a vacuum pump in our service center. It is crucial to disconnect the board from the water as soon as possible after detecting damage.
We recommend purchasing a sports liability insurance policy before traveling to Rhodes.
This insurance is not included in the price of the board rental.
If a Prasonisi Center board is damaged or if a collision results in bodily injury or health issues, this insurance will cover the costs.

What is included in the "Family package - 1 couple 1 board"?

It's ideal for couples who want to balance parenting with windsurfing or wingfoiling, or who want to spend two or three hours windsurfing or wingfoiling each day.
When booking the Family Package, two people have the opportunity to use one board interchangeably. However, this offer does not allow both users to use the equipment at the same time.

How far in advance should I book equipment, courses, or hotels?

It is best to make a reservation as soon as you decide to come rather than waiting until the last minute.

In terms of weather conditions (wind, temperature, and tourism), which month is best for visiting?

May: Pros
- Good wind
- New equipment
- More space on the water, which makes sailing more comfortable
- Energetic Greeks
- Fewer ordinary tourists
- The island is still green after winter, making it very impressive and beautiful.
Good prices are available everywhere, so it is a great time to organize a group or corporate trip. It iss also a good time to get some practice in before the season starts. Many riders who plan to return in September choose May.; Cons
The water and the wind are still a bit cold, so a shorty or long wetsuit is necessary, depending on the day. Several social and beach events are organized.
June: Pros
- Consistent, strong, and warm wind.
- Warm water.
- There are still not many riders or tourists.; Cons
There are no disadvantages. It is an ideal month to visit!
July, August, September: Pros

These months are not recommended for those looking for lower prices.
October: Pros
It is a great extension of summer, with ideal water and air conditions, as well as beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Though it may be somewhat unpredictable, there is still a strong wind, which can sometimes be even stronger than at the peak of the season. There is plenty of space on the water.; Cons
Days are slightly shorter, and our center is open for half an hour less according to Greek law.

Should I bring a wetsuit in early May, or will the water be warm enough?

It's a good idea to bring a wetsuit at the beginning of the season because the water isn't always warm enough. You can bring your own or buy one at Zanetos Super Market. The store has a wide selection of wetsuits, Lycra, and gloves. They're not heavy, so we always recommend them.
