Corsica - Spots


  1. Pinarellu
    Pinarellu is a nice bay with most of the time slalom-conditions. There's parking space close to the beach.

  2. San Ciprianu
    This bay lies just south of Pinarellu. It's conditions are similar.

  3. La Chiappa
    La Chiappa lies on the south-side of the Porto Vecchio's bay. Normaly this spot has moderate slalom conditions, but when the Mistral shows up things can get really out of hand. The westwind can suddenly increase to 7 or 8 Beaufort and when the wind is southwest some moderate waves appear just outside the bay. With Scorrico from the south this spot turns into a wave-spot. Then only the wave-freaks go out on the water.

  4. Santa Manza
    The bay of Santa Manza has two surfspots: A slalomspot and a speed strip. The mountains in the inlands accellerate the wind in this spot. Watch out for the off-shore winds, they can blow you all the way the Italy.

  5. Piantarella/Piana
    The bay of Santa Manza has two surfspots: A slalomspot and a speed strip. The mountains in the inlands accellerate the wind in this spot. Watch out for the off-shore winds, they can blow you all the way the Italy.
