Is Solinas – Kitesurfing & Wingfoil in South Sardinia

Is Solinas Beach, Masainas, South Sardinia

Is Solinas beach is located about 15 minutes by car from Kite House Sardinia, in the municipality of Masainas, in the Gulf of Palmas, just next to Porto Botte.

As a kite spot, Is Solinas is appreciated for its open-sea conditions with generally flat water and some light chop, making it a suitable spot for free riding, progression and hydrofoil.
The beach is long and wide, and the spot is considered safe thanks to side-on and onshore wind directions.

Is Solinas is home to a local kitesurf and wingfoil school with whom we have an excellent relationship.
While lessons are managed locally, we can propose accompanied freeride and navigation sessions for independent riders who want to explore the spot in a relaxed and safe way.

The presence of sand dunes and Mediterranean vegetation offers natural shelter from the wind, making the beach particularly pleasant and family-friendly.
The open sea in front of the beach is also ideal for swimming, and a well-equipped beach bar and restaurant makes Is Solinas a great place to spend the whole day.

The wind blows throughout the year, increasing in intensity thanks to the thermal wind (from May to October).
In particular, West and North-West winds, with sun or little cloud cover, often blow 5 to 10 knots stronger than forecasted.

During the swimming season, kitesurfing at Is Solinas is allowed only in a designated area of the beach, in accordance with local regulations.

Main winds

The North-West wind (Mistral), which predominates in Sardinia, blows strong and directly into the bay, increasing in intensity thanks to the thermal effect during the summer months.
The West wind (Ponente) and South-West wind (Libeccio) blow quite well from spring to autumn, especially when the sky is not too cloudy.
