This natural lagoon offers ideal conditions for all levels. Beginners enjoy waist-deep water in a perfectly safe environment, while advanced riders can exit the lagoon for long tacks toward the mythical Lavezzi Islands or into the Strait of Bonifacio, where swells can reach impressive heights.

The spot works mainly with East/Northeast winds (most frequent in summer thanks to thermal winds enhanced by the Corsica-Sardinia venturi effect). Westerly winds also work but are gustier and disrupted by the terrain. The Bonifacio area gets wind every other day to every 3 days in summer.

Note: Kiting is not practical at Piantarella in July-August due to heavy tourist traffic, limited space for kites, and numerous boats anchored in the lagoon. Best visited in shoulder season (April-June, September-October).
