Surfing in Tuscany

The best surf spots for your vacation in Maremma

When you think of a vacation in Maremma, the most beautiful beaches in Tuscany, you think of sun, sea and good food. But not about surfing in the Maremma.

Unfortunately, because the Maremma beaches offer ideal conditions for wind and kite surfing. I would like to show you the most important spots today. Some beaches are still real insider tips for Tuscany.

PUNTONE

Puntonebeach is located in Puntone, a little south of Follonica. Here all professionals can rent material and get started. All beginners can choose from a wide range of wind and kite surfing, sup and canoe courses. The bar service provides you with cool drinks and simple dishes

The special thing about Puntonebeach is the shallow beach, ideal for beginners to practice.

MY ADVICE

For dinner in the port of Scarlino, in the “new” Beccofino (link to the article on the best fish restaurants in the Maremma internally on the portal) There is no fresher fish anywhere and the selection of excellent wines is almost endless.

CASTIGLIONE DELLA PESCAIA

The most famous kite and surf spot in the Maremma is the Kite Beach Fiumara, short KFB, south of Castiglione della Pescaia. Both beginners and professionals feel at home here. The instructors are all very experienced and travel to the best surf spots worldwide in the winter months. So there is always a lot to talk about. In addition to kite and windsurfing courses, you can also learn to sail.

MY ADVICE

For an aperitif at the Skipper Beach Club, this is not only the best lido in the area, but also the bar with the best aperitif and good music. Often you don’t want to leave. But that has already been thought of. On the first floor of the bar there is a restaurant with an unlimited view of the sea and the most beautiful sunsets in the Maremma.

MARINA DI GROSSETO

The KBF (Kite Beach Fiumara) winter spot is located in Marina di Grosseto, more precisely in Bagno Moreno. The spot is characterized above all by an exceptionally wide sandy beach, there is plenty of space here. In the summer months there are even courses for “surfing”. Great fun, my son was only there last week and he is thrilled.

MY ADVICE

If you are with the family in the Maremma, I can highly recommend the “Cielo Verde” (internally linked to the scheda of the accommodation on the portal). Located in the middle of the shady forest, it offers several swimming pools, restaurants and a children’s program on a large, wide area. So all needs in the family are taken care of.

The Terme Marine Leopoldo II is very close to the Bagno Moreno

Exactly the right place for everyone who wants to take it easy.

TALAMONE

Further south, just before you get to the Argentario peninsula, you come to Talamone. A long bay with a fine sandy beach extends to the harbor. With these good wind conditions it can sometimes get really full. It is one of the most popular spots among kiters. At twkc you can rent equipment and take courses to get even better.

What makes the spot special is the Talamone skyline, which always accompanies you in the corner of your eye.

MY ADVICE

After an action-packed day, the best reward is a dinner in the sunset.

Elegant flair, top cuisine with local products and excellent wines, topped with a view of the water and a gentle, salty breeze from the sea in the air.

A beach holiday in Tuscany offers a wide range of water sports and perfect spots for surfing in the Maremma.
