Overview

Budoni is a well-known kitesurf spot on the northeast coast of Sardinia, offering a long sandy beach ideal for kiting. The spot enjoys both the Maestrale (northwest) and the thermal sea breeze (east-northeast) in the afternoon. Located near Olbia, Budoni is easily accessible and is a popular destination for kiters visiting northeast Sardinia. The relatively flat water near shore and reliable summer wind make it a good choice for all levels.
