Overview

Marina di Sorso is a kitesurf spot on the north coast of Sardinia, between Sassari and Castelsardo. The long sandy beach is well exposed to the Maestrale (northwest) and the Tramontane/Gregale (north-northeast), which blow regularly and strongly in summer. The spot is less touristy than the north Gallura coast, offering a more authentic local atmosphere. Flat water near the shore and some chop further out make it suitable for all riding styles.
