Funtanamare

Funtanamare is a small beach break located on Sardinia's western coast facing the Tyrrhenian Sea. The spot features a narrow sandy beach backed by dense Mediterranean vegetation and forested hills. The coastline orientation toward the west provides natural protection from Atlantic swells, resulting in modest wave heights averaging under 1 meter. Rocky formations appear both on the shoreline and near the waterline, requiring careful entry and exit points. The shallow water conditions near shore and limited beach width make this primarily a beginner-friendly location. Best conditions occur with northerly winds (0°), which provide side-shore winds parallel to the beach. The low wind reliability (8.5%) and minimal average wind speed (6.5 knots) suggest this is a marginal spot requiring either exceptional wind conditions or supplementary power. Water temperatures averaging 18.8°C require a wetsuit year-round. The proximity of roads and limited facilities indicate this is a quiet, undeveloped spot suited for local riders seeking sheltered conditions rather than a destination break.
