Figari bay: kite spot summary
The Figari Bay is located in the southwest of Corsica. It is a flat water spot, where the thermal wind usually kicks in from early afternoon. The area is vast, especially if you venture out of the bay to enjoy the stunning landscape!
Access to the bay is from the main road, the beach is indicated shortly after the village of Pianottoli-Caldarello heading south. You then have to follow a long path to the last parking lot. Be careful, there are quite a few potholes.
The place is perfect for beginners as well as experienced riders. However, in the summer, it is important to be mindful of the bathing area and other windsurfers.
You can sail peacefully in this spot, with the occasional sight of a water bomber coming to refill its tanks: a guaranteed spectacle!

Note: There is a large parking lot near the spot for unloading equipment. The spot is gusty right in front, you need to move away a bit to catch more consistent wind.
