Overview

Blokos is a kitesurf spot in the Gulf of Saint-Florent (Haute-Corse), on the eastern shore of the gulf near Saint-Florent. This spot catches the Tramontane (NW-N) and Libeccio (W-WNW) winds that funnel through the gulf, offering flat water conditions sheltered from ocean swell.

Part of the Saint-Florent kitesurf cluster alongside Roya. Good infrastructure in nearby Saint-Florent. A reliable spot for the north Corsica area.
