About this spot
Pozzallo sits on Sicily's long south coast, where summer thermals and seasonal Maestrale winds deliver consistent side-shore conditions across a wide sandy beach. The water is flat to choppy close in and builds to proper swell further out — making it one of the island's most versatile spots for riders of all levels. A relaxed fishing town with good food and zero kite-tourism pretension.
