Pounta is a long stretch of fine sand where the wind blows 5 days a week per average. This makes it ideal for sports that require wind. In 2005, Pounta beach was included in the Professional Kiteboard Riders Association (PKRA) World Tour and a year later the first Kiteboardpro World Tour took place there.

The Paros Kite Pro Center is an active promoter of Kiteboarding on Paros. Apart from the regular competitions that it organizes, there are professionals to give you kiteboarding courses and to set up various programs, either for beginners or for experienced athletes. There are also packages that include accommodation and courses that give you the chance to practice this extraordinary new water sport.
