Overview

Pojatte is a spot on Lago di Santa Croce, on the southern shore of the lake, in the Farra d'Alpago area. It is one of the main launch zones on this famous kitesurfing lake in the Venetian Pre-Alps. The spot benefits from the powerful southeast thermal wind that funnels into the valley in the afternoon. The flat water and mountain setting make it a very popular spot for kitesurfing in Northern Italy.
