Description of Pozzallo - Marina di Ragusa (Italy)
Not one of the most renowned spots in the paradise island of Sicily, but for sure a very kitesurf-friendly beach. Set on the extreme south of the island this wide sandy beach is ideal to set up your kite and go for a great session. During July and August, the beach can be crowded, but you can probably still launch your kite from the nearby launch corridors used by all the sea activities. Best seasons in spring and fall when trade winds and thermal provide great conditions. The the very hot months the wind might be more scarce.
