As
you can see PORTO BOTTE with 57%
of profits days is among the windiest spot of
southern Sardinia.
Moreover, while for other spots sometimes the
wind can be so strong, but with not optimal direction (ex. side-off
or off), in Porto Botte every day is good. Thanks to the conformation
of the Golfo Palmas coast and the nearby Sant'Antioco island,
you can kitesurf with any wind direction at the maximum distance
of 15 Km from the base. Beyond that it should be noted that the
record data don't include summer thermal winds, especially with
the mistral and sirocco, that in Porto Botte reinforces the expected
wind around 5 knots, turning a day to 10 knots in a 15! (Note
also that Porto Botte records only 12% days without wind). Finally,
by averaging out all the southern Sardinia spots, you get 54%
of useful days of wind, more than a day yes and one not for whole
year!
