About This Spot
Punta Trettu is a lagoon-style kitesurfing spot located on the Sardinian coast in southern Italy. The area features a protected embayment with multiple small islands and shallow water zones, creating a distinctive lagoon environment. The northeast-facing coastline provides moderate protection from open ocean swells, with average wave heights of 0.71m indicating calm water conditions suitable for learning and progression. Wind reliability is low at 13.6%, with average winds of 7.5 knots, requiring sessions during favorable weather windows. The spot experiences side-shore conditions from northeasterly winds, the most consistent direction for this location. The shallow lagoon waters and scattered rocks make this spot most suitable for beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking protected conditions with minimal swell. Key considerations include monitoring tidal currents, avoiding shallow seagrass areas, and staying clear of the small islands. Access appears available from the developed areas visible along the northern shore. Local knowledge of seasonal wind patterns and tidal cycles is recommended before visiting.
