Blue Zone Sardinia (Vignola Mare, Italy) ★★★

Our center offers kitesurfing and windsurfing courses for beginners and advanced, giving lovers of these sports the opportunity to start or perfect themselves. You will be assisted by experienced and qualified instructors, using FIV (Italian Sailing Federation) and VDWS (Verband Deutscher Wassersportschulen). In the bay of Vignola we usually find perfect conditions for beginners in the morning and late afternoon. During the central hours of the day the thermal wind rises, allowing experts to show off their skills. In our spot you will find good conditions with west and mistral winds (slightly gusty) and perfect conditions with grecale, east and sirocco winds, which arrive in Vignola sideshore from the right and are generally stronger than in other spots in the area. Sometimes challenging with strong mistral, with shorebreak and waves breaking about 150 m from the beach, around the rock (called "Turtle"). It is considered the best spot in the whole area with east, north-east and south-east wind, because in the Bay of Vignola the wind is reinforced from the east with short wave up to 1. 5 meters from the right.
