Here are the answers to the most frequently asked questions divided by type of service
Kitesurfing is a sport that can be considered extreme, but incredibly safe compared to many other similar sports. Obviously, like all sports, there is the possibility of having some injuries, especially if there is total non-observance of the basic safety rules.
No, absolutely no! Kitesurfing is a technical sport and not of strength, even children and girls can do it.
No, absolutely no! Kitesurfing is a sport in itself that can be learned even without having ever done board or sailing sports!
Kitesurfing is a sport that can be practiced at any age, even advanced 60+ years !! It is enough to be in a state of normal physical form, the same that would be required for any sport. For children under 13/14 years, although the practice is still possible, due to the weight (not sufficient) it is not recommended, or in any case it must be evaluated case by case.
Yup! but under certain conditions: if the instructor believes that the student has reached a level that does not create danger for himself or for others and that the practice allows him to manage himself and the material without the need for continuous assistance.
The Sulcitan coasts offer, in addition to wonderful beaches, excursions of all kinds: sailing boats and canoes, mountain bike rental and excursions, sup stand up paddle rental and excursions, guided visits to museums and monuments, parties and festivals, discos, climbing.
Sardinia is windy all year round. The best time to come on vacation is from the beginning of April to the end of October. In this period the temperatures are more suitable for practice, the winds are more constant and there are thermals even on days when the wind is not expected.
It is not easy to say as it changes every year. The statistics, however, give the windiest period the months from the beginning of April to the end of October.
In Sardinia these correspond to the high season periods dedicated to bathing, but here, at the Porto Botte spot, there is room for everyone. Unlike the nearby spots, such as Punta Trettu, here in Porto Botte in fact the extension of the coast makes overcrowding practically impossible!
Absolutely yes! The shallow waters, the constant winds and the large spaces at sea make it perfect for learning this magnificent sport!
Porto Botte is the windiest spot in South West Sardinia, with winds from the NW there are always 4-5 knots more than the rest of the coast. The wind arrives on the bay with about 40-50 minutes of delay compared to Punta Trettu but with a greater intensity; it is also more open to sea breezes that blow from the SW, while conditions are the same when it blows from the SE.
Absolutely yes! The bay is perfect for the practice of kitesurfing with hydrofoil, as one side of the bay has depths sufficiently high for the conduct of hydrofoil already after a few meters from the shoreline.
Yes in Porto Botte in conditions of high pressure a thermal wind from SW blows which lasts from 11 to 14. The intensity can vary between 10 and 14 knots. On the coast, phenomena similar to thermals are also created in the presence, however, of a component of wind direction: for example, 6-7 knots of NW component are enough, the famous Mistral direction to find even 15 18 knots at the spot.
The coast offers large parking areas and various services such as kiosks, kitesurfing, windsurfing and wing foil schools.
It is an activity suitable for anyone, young and old, sportsmen and women!
No SUPs have great stability! Furthermore, the learning process involves several steps before being able to stand upright, obviously the first few times you lose your balance and fall into the water, which makes learning a lot of fun!
No! Even a person who has never practiced can paddle for 50-60 minutes without any particular problems!
Exclusively a swimsuit and desire to have fun!
No! It is not recommended! Even on an apparently calm day, a light breeze blowing towards the sea could put you in great difficulty; you need to be able to ride the SUP with some confidence before venturing out into the sea on your own.
