Geremeas, with its 3 km of white sand and crystal waters, is one beautiful beach in the southern Sardinia.
The beach of Geremeas becomes a good kitesurfing spot with certain wind conditions. This kite-spot of Sardinia works with Mistral (NW), Ponente (W) and Libeccio (SW). When the wind blows from north, the wind is very gusty. Mistral (NW) is usually quite gusty. Ponente (W), that in Geremeas blows onshore right side, and the Libeccio are the best winds here and, when strong, create good waves.
Geremeas is the nearest kite-spot to Cagliari for kitesurfing with Mistral and onshore-side shore wind.
In Geremeas is not easy to launch and land the kites because of the gusty wind, the small dunes bihind the beach and the Mediterranean scrub. The sea bottom becomes immediately deep and there are often waves. For those reasons, the kite-spot of Geremeas is recommended only to expert riders.
During the Summer season the beach is usually really crowded, so is very hard to kitesurf in this period. For this reason the kitesurfing spot of Geremeas is considered a winter kite-spot.
Along the coast that goes from Cagliari to Villasimius, Geremeas is practically the only place where is possible to kiteusurf. In other places like Capitana, Torre delle Stelle, Solanas, Capo Boi, beaches and wind conditions are pratically unsuitable for kitesurfing.
Although in Geremeas the “bad days in kitesurfing” are frequent, when you have a lucky day you will take home an unforgettable kitesurfing session.
