Master the glide on the glassy waters of Daphnila Bay
In Daphnila Bay, where the lush greenery of Kommeno meets the Ionian Sea, Waterskiing and Wakeboarding take on a new dimension. In one of Corfu’s most idyllic and sheltered spots, the sea transforms into the perfect natural “arena,” challenging you to develop your speed and technique with absolute stability.
Choose your style of waterskiing: Waterski, Slalom Ski or Wakeboard
- Waterski (Double Ski): The classic entry into the world of waterskiing. Two skis provide the stability and control needed for instant success. Within minutes, guided by our expert instructors, you’ll find your balance, correct your posture, and feel the power of the boat gliding you safely across the surface..
- Slalom Ski (Monoski): The art of speed. This is for those seeking the adrenaline of riding on a single ski. It requires precision and balance, offering the unique thrill of “slashing” through the water with sharp, rapid turns. For experienced skiers, we offer access to our slalom course for a truly competitive feel.
- Wakeboard: The water version of snowboarding that combines style, balance and creativity. The board’s larger surface area offers stability for beginners, while advanced riders can perform impressive jumps and tricks on the boat’s wake.
The Corfu Ski Club Training Method
We believe that proper technique is the key to enjoyment. Every session includes one-on-one coaching through our proven 3-stage progression:
On Land
Before entering the water, your instructor demonstrates the correct body positioning and explains the hand signals used to communicate with the driver.
On the Bar (The Boom)
This stage practically guarantees your success. Instead of a long rope, you hold onto a stable metal bar (the boom) attached to the side of the boat. As the boat starts, the bar lifts you up with total stability. Since you are right next to the boat, the instructor can talk to you and correct your posture in real-time!
On the Rope
Once you feel confident on the bar, we transition to the rope. You let go of the boom, take the handle of the tow rope, and the boat starts again—this time, you experience the full freedom of skiing behind the wake!
Extra Tip: For “glassy” water (perfectly flat surface), we highly recommend booking your session during the early morning hours.
