Spiaggia (north)
Italy · Sicile
The beach of Spiaggia (north) in Agnone Bagni, on the coast of Syracuse in Sicily, is a long stretch of fine sand bordered by a dense pine forest. It is a simple and natural spot, favored by locals for their winter kitesurfing sessions when the beach empties.
Behind the beach, a row of pines covers a large wooded area, providing some shade and a tranquil setting off-season. The water is clear and the bottom progresses gently, ideal for starting without stress.
People mainly come in winter to avoid the summer bathers' crowd, with a steady wind that makes sessions reliable.
Historical averages by month — not a live forecast.
The spot works well with winds from southeast (Scirocco) and northeast (Grecale), which come in side-shore from the open sea, creating a moderate chop water surface suitable for freeride and slalom. Launching is done directly from the sandy beach, wide and obstacle-free, with a clear take-off area to the north where the space is more open.
The navigation area extends along the beach to the north, remaining vigilant on the limits to avoid bathers to the south. In winter, the water surface is cleaner with small side-on waves, perfect for progressing in wave or freeride. Be cautious in summer, the crowded beach imposes not to navigate.
No significant tide here, the bottom remains stable. Ideal sessions take place early in the morning or late afternoon to catch the thermal or prevailing winds, with good visibility over the bay of Syracuse.
