About This Spot
Lido Signorino is a small bay on Sicily's northern coast facing westward into the Tyrrhenian Sea. The spot is characterized by a narrow sandy beach backed by dense residential development and agricultural land. Water conditions appear relatively sheltered with light turquoise coloring indicating shallow zones typical of Mediterranean bays. Wind reliability is poor at 11.9%, making consistent session planning difficult. Average wind of 7.6 knots is marginal for most kitesurfing, requiring light-wind equipment and skills. Wave heights average 0.93m, providing minimal swell energy. The bay's protected nature creates side-shore conditions best with northerly winds. This spot suits only light-wind specialists with experience in marginal conditions. Urban proximity limits space for launching, landing, and recovery. Thermal wind patterns from inland agricultural areas may create inconsistent, gusty conditions. The shallow bay waters demand careful area assessment before sessions.
