Tonnarella is a sheltered bay located on Sicily's northern coast, facing west toward the Tyrrhenian Sea. The spot features a crescent-shaped sandy beach backed by dense residential development. The bay's enclosed nature provides natural protection from larger ocean swells, resulting in consistently small, manageable wave heights averaging under 1 meter. Water clarity is good, with light swell characteristics. The bay configuration creates side-shore wind conditions when northerly or southerly winds prevail. With average wind speeds around 8 knots and moderate reliability, conditions are generally accessible for beginner to early-intermediate riders. The shallow, sandy bottom and protected waters make this suitable for skill development. Main considerations include limited wave size for progression, the need to navigate around residential infrastructure, and awareness of local boat activity. Best conditions occur during winter months when Mediterranean wind patterns strengthen slightly.
