Marina delle Rose

Marina delle Rose is a shallow bay on Sardinia's northeastern coast, oriented toward the northwest with a sandy beach transitioning to protected waters. The spot features a long, gentle beach with forested hinterland and agricultural areas inland. Water conditions are characterized by rough chop rather than organized swell, with modest average wave heights around 0.83m. The bay offers protected waters suitable for beginners, though conditions are frequently underpowered—wind reliability sits at only 18.4% with average winds of 8.2 knots. Best conditions occur with northeasterly to easterly winds that provide side-shore orientation. The shallow bay bottom and nearshore sandbars make this spot accessible for progression and skill building, though riders must navigate around visible rocky features and shallow areas. Limited fetch within the bay restricts wave development. This spot suits beginners and intermediates seeking sheltered, flat-water practice conditions during wind events, though the low wind consistency requires patience and selective session planning.
