At Porto Giunco, the spot mainly works with the Grecale, which is a Northeast wind that generally arrives side-on to side-shore depending on the exact axis of the beach. When well established, the water surface is quite clean near the shore, with areas of light to moderate chop further out. Several local sources also indicate that the spot is suitable for beginners due to good wind orientation and relatively readable water, but it is important to remain attentive to the area and the crowd during the season.
Water entry is from the beach of Porto Giunco, with a launch area to be organized on the wide sand while avoiding disturbing swimmers. The spot can be interesting when the wind is consistent, but it is important to monitor drift towards areas near Stagno di Notteri, which should not be crossed while kitesurfing. In case of more southern winds, the beach of Campulongu is generally mentioned as the other option in Villasimius, confirming that Porto Giunco is mainly a working beach for northeast flows.
