Spiaggia di Vignola
Italy · Sardaigne
The Spiaggia di Vignola in Vignola Mare, northern Sardinia, is a white sandy beach bordered by a lively campsite in season. It is a popular spot for kiters due to its proximity to the sea and practical facilities like a supermarket and an on-site restaurant.
The area offers a family-friendly atmosphere with a pool and tennis court for non-surfers. The 16th-century Spanish tower overlooks the beach, adding a historical touch to the landscape.
There is a kite school in the southern part, ideal for progressing safely.
The spot works well with winds from northwest to west (maestrale and ponente), which are side-on relative to the south-facing beach. Winds from northeast and east (grecale) are perfect, bringing more regular and powerful conditions. However, be careful, the wind can be böig on the water even if it is more stable on land, due to the shading from surrounding reliefs.
Launching is done directly from the wide sandy beach, with a take-off area on the sandstreifen at the water's edge. The navigation area is in the sheltered bay, but there is a lagoon part to the south where kiting is allowed, perfect for twintip in flat. Prefer surfing at sea when waves form with grecale.
Paid parking is abundant near the spot, and the campsite facilitates long stays. A local school offers courses in the southern lagoon.
