Bodri

Bodri is a protected bay on the northeastern Corsican coast facing northwest toward open water. The spot is sheltered by surrounding headlands and features a sandy beach with shallow approach waters. The bay receives water from the Bevinco River visible at the southern end, creating variable water conditions. Wave exposure is limited due to the bay's enclosed nature, with average waves under 1 meter. Water clarity appears compromised by sediment and agricultural drainage from the surrounding developed catchment. The spot works best with northeasterly to easterly winds that blow side-shore parallel to the beach, providing safe conditions with good exit options. Low wind reliability (12.8%) and modest average wind strength (6.5 knots) suggest this is a fair-weather spot requiring higher wind days to generate usable conditions. Bodri suits beginners and intermediate kiters seeking a protected, non-demanding environment with manageable water conditions. The shallow bay and nearby obstacles require awareness of local geography. Best sessions occur during winter when stronger systems provide adequate wind, though water temperatures remain cool.
