Overview

Cala Pischina is a beautiful and wild kitesurf spot on the north coast of Sardinia, between Vignola and Santa Teresa di Gallura. Set in a small granite-framed cala, it benefits from the powerful Maestrale (northwest) channelled through the Bocche di Bonifacio strait, as well as the Levante (southeast). The surrounding landscape of pink granite boulders and Mediterranean scrub is spectacular. A hidden gem for riders looking to escape the crowds of the more famous northern Sardinian spots.
