Overview

The most famous kite spot in the north of Sardinia. You can ride on both sides – west at the river mouth and east where the windsurfers’ beach is. West side is bigger and usually have side-onshore winds, while east side is mostly with side-offshore winds and during the high season reserved for windsurfers only.

Crystal clear and turquoise water that warms up to 26 ºC in the summer, while in winter it is usually only 15º.

Porto Pollo gets really crowded during summer – July & August.

Wind

Windy pretty much every day. Wind from the west it is usually a bit gusty.
14-30 knts, you can add few knots to the forecast.

Dangers

It can get really crowded on a windy day. Watch for boats, swimmers, and windsurfers.

It is your responsability to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
