Porto Pirastu

Porto Pirastu is a sandy beach break on the south-central coast of Sardinia, Italy, facing east into the Tyrrhenian Sea. The spot features a long, straight sandy shoreline backed by agricultural land and scattered development. The turquoise coloration indicates shallow, sandy bottom conditions with possible seagrass beds. This is primarily a beginner-friendly location with exceptionally low wind reliability (4.4%) and minimal wave energy (0.53m average). Best conditions occur with northerly winds providing side-shore conditions parallel to the coastline. The spot suits beginners and casual kiters seeking flat-water progression in a sheltered setting. However, the extremely limited wind and swell make this more suitable for learning fundamentals than progressing skills. Water temperatures average 18.7°C, requiring a wetsuit most of the year. The shallow waters and apparent seagrass coverage suggest checking conditions before launching. This spot is best visited during summer months when occasional sea breezes develop.
