About This Spot
Marina Palmense is a small beach break spot on Italy's Adriatic coast, located along a developed stretch of the Marche region. The coastline faces east toward the Adriatic Sea, with a narrow sandy beach backed by dense pine forests and modern residential development. The spot is characterized by extremely light swell (0.46m average) and very weak wind conditions (5.1 knots average with only 0.9% reliability), making it marginal for consistent kitesurfing. Side-shore winds from the north would be optimal for this east-facing beach. The area is heavily developed with highway access and built infrastructure limiting both space and conditions. Best wind direction is northerly for side-shore orientation. This location suits only beginner kiters seeking extremely light-wind conditions or those using it for progression in very gentle waters. The shallow Adriatic waters and low energy make this primarily a fair-weather, low-wind destination rather than a reliable kitesurfing spot. Access may be restricted due to private development.
