The wind blows fairly consistently in these parts, but it is when the dominant libeccio wind gets up that windsurfers and kiters find the ideal conditions for their chosen sports, providing a captivating display for spectators as well.
The area possesses a large number of spots, each with different characteristics. There is also a range of sailing schools and clubs which make it possible for all enthusiasts to persevere with their sporting pursuits in ideal conditions.
After stormy weather, when the force of the sea subsides and the waves tend to lengthen, surfers can also find a number of spots along the Costa degli Etruschi where conditions are particularly favourable for surfing. The area offers plenty for non-surfing companions, too: a wealth of medieval villages, unspoilt countryside, Tuscan charm and excellent gastronomic fare.
Below is a description of the area’s main surfing and windsurfing sites and a list of accommodation equipped for surfers and windsurfers. Tailor-made package holidays are also available through travel agencies.
