Are you wondering which are the best kitesurf spots at the Stagnone di Marsala in Sicily?
The city of Marsala is also called the "city of the wind" precisely because the wind is an element assiduously present in the city, and the sport of kitesurfing takes a lot of advantage from it.
The winds from the north are the most constant and stable with an average speed of 16-20 knots in the periods ranging from spring to autumn. Thanks to its intensity, the southern wind can even exceed 30 knots. In summer the shallow and brackish waters of the lagoon warm up in the sun so that the strong difference in temperature with the open sea helps to generate thermal winds.
Kite surfing is a water sport that consists of gliding on the water on a board, dragged by a large kite moving thanks to the force of the wind. It can be practiced in Sicily almost all year round thanks to the temperature almost always mild hugging the island.
The Stagnone lagoon is undoubtedly a corner of paradise for kitesurfing enthusiasts, with numerous spots where you can learn or practice this beautiful sport!
Thanks to its characteristics, the Stagnone of Marsala has become a veritable nest of kite clubs, kite centres, kite camps and schools, which organize courses and lessons in kitesurfing, windsurfing, and wing also for beginners and offer the opportunity to rent the equipment on site.
How long does it take to learn? It's not that difficult! Learning time is very subjective; however, in general, to learn how to assemble the equipment, to make the first glides on the water and to be able to control the kite, it takes about two days of course, and once you have learned the basics, becoming a skilled kiter will not be complicated at all!
There are facilities in the area for the rental and storage of all equipment, residences, B&Bs, holiday homes, hotels, restaurants, excursions and lots of evening entertainment.
For Kitesurfers from all over the world, this is undoubtedly the ideal place to practice kite at all levels and in every season of the year!
