About This Spot
Villasimius is a bay-style kitesurfing spot located on the southeastern coast of Sardinia, Italy. The coastline faces northeast into the Mediterranean, with a sandy beach forming the primary riding area. The spot features a sheltered bay configuration with a lagoon system to the west, providing variable water conditions. A nearby rocky headland to the south offers some natural windbreak characteristics. The area supports significant residential tourism infrastructure, indicating seasonal usage patterns. Given the low average wind reliability of 10.2% and modest wave heights (0.64m), this spot suits beginners and intermediate riders seeking calm-water progression. Best conditions occur with northwest winds (315°) which provide side-shore to side-onshore angles across the main beach. The protected bay nature means this spot functions best during stronger wind events, as typical conditions are marginal. Water temperature averaging 19.2°C requires consideration of seasonal riding. Local knowledge of tide ranges and lagoon current patterns is advisable before riding.
