Overview
The west coast of Sardinia is generally more exposed and wilder, with spots that work mainly with north-west winds and more sustained episodes. There is often choppy water to waves, depending on the exposure and the state of the sea, so it is not always the most peaceful place to learn. In the south-west, some bays and lagoons offer flatter water and more accessible conditions, which greatly expands the possibilities. Porto Botte is known for its flat water and very consistent wind, while around Chia or Porto Pino, it leans more towards wave sessions when the right orientations come in. It is a highly appreciated area for riders looking for windy gliding, with a variable level of comfort depending on the chosen spot.
