Overview

La Marmorata is a kitesurf spot on the extreme north coast of Sardinia, near Santa Teresa di Gallura, in the narrow strait of the Bocche di Bonifacio. This is one of the windiest and most spectacular locations on the entire island — the Maestrale (northwest) funnels through with legendary power between Sardinia and Corsica. The dramatic granite landscape and the views of Corsica just 12km away make this an unforgettable riding location for experienced kiters.
