Quercianella - Calambrese

Quercianella-Calambrese is a sheltered bay located on the Tuscan coast of Italy, characterized by a southeast-facing shoreline with moderate residential development. The spot features a protected bay environment with sandy beaches transitioning to shallow water near shore, backed by forested hills. The presence of moored boats and visible reef/rocky structures indicates a mature recreational area with established infrastructure. Conditions are typically light, with average wind speeds of 5.6 knots and minimal swell (0.65m average). The northeast wind direction provides side-shore conditions suitable for the beach break setup. This spot is best suited for beginners and lighter-wind enthusiasts due to consistent but gentle conditions. Water temperatures average 16.9°C, requiring seasonal thermal protection. Key considerations include navigating shallow zones, avoiding boat traffic and moored vessels, and managing the rocky coastal features. The low wind reliability (5.4%) suggests this is a marginal spot that works best during specific weather windows.
