Diano Marina is a beach break located on the Italian Riviera in Liguria, facing southeast into the Mediterranean Sea. The spot consists of sandy beaches bordered by a developed coastal town, with a marina complex at the southern section creating structural hazards. The coastline orientation (roughly SE-facing) means optimal side-shore conditions occur with northeast winds, though prevailing data suggests very light and unreliable wind patterns (3.3% reliability, 5.4 knots average). Water conditions are typically mild with small swell averaging 0.61m, making this suitable for beginners and progression riders during favorable wind windows. The spot's main appeal is accessibility and manageable conditions rather than challenging terrain. Kiters should be aware of marina infrastructure, boat traffic, and limited launch/landing space due to urban development. Summer thermal winds may provide occasional sessions. This spot is most viable during autumn and spring when Mediterranean wind patterns are more favorable, though conditions remain generally light.
