About This Spot
Casa del Conte is located on a northwest-facing bay along the Campania coast of southern Italy, featuring a sandy beach backed by extensive residential and commercial development. The spot consists of shallow bay waters protected by the surrounding coastline, creating a sheltered environment. The extremely poor wind reliability (3.1%) and minimal average wind strength (4.9 knots) make this an unpredictable kitesurfing destination. Wave energy is minimal at 0.64m average, indicating primarily light swell conditions. The shallow bay bathymetry and proximity to developed areas with boat traffic present operational challenges. Best conditions would require northeast winds (45°) to achieve side-shore alignment. This spot is suited only to complete beginners practicing in marginal conditions, as consistent wind and wave resources are insufficient for productive progression. Water temperature averaging 18.5°C requires seasonal consideration. Access appears straightforward from developed beach infrastructure, but the combination of unreliable wind and minimal wave energy makes this spot impractical for serious kitesurfing development.
