The Bonneveine beach, located in the 8th arrondissement of Marseille, is an urban spot appreciated by riders for its easy access to the sea. It stretches over 540 meters of fine sand and offers a view of the Mediterranean coast typical of the region. It is a popular place for locals, especially in the low season, with a friendly atmosphere thanks to the Massilia Kite association based at the rescue station n°8 from October to May.
The spot is accessible with winds from South-West to North, but it requires experience due to the jetties and the shore break in strong winds. The launch area is generally at the junction with the Vieille Chapelle beach, a sheltered area that facilitates starts. In the summer, kitesurfing is prohibited or very technical.
The more the wind comes from the South, the more the water is flat, ideal for freestyle sessions. However, with North or mistral winds, it becomes steeper and more technical, with increased risks.
