Clear blue water with soft sand close to the small island in front of the main beach. The water is knee to waist deep in front of the small island.

The main beach itself is sand/small pebbles and covered in seaweed for a large part. The beach at the small island is soft sand.

Works best with winds coming from the East. West winds make this a very gusty location. Further south NE is onshore. On the small island off shore any wind direction can be sideshore.

In the center of Bonifacio take the small road left of the surf shop. Keep going on this road until you see parked cars by the side of the road. All the way at the end of the road on the left hand side there's a small beach and a bar at the right hand side (closed from mid September, except for the speed crossing to Sardinia). Walk in front of the bar over the rocks towards the main beach (on the right hand side). Even though it's not very wide, it's long enough to launch a kite with just about any wind direction safely. Alternately, you can walk to the end of the beach and walk over to the small island. You can then start from the beach there (talk to the locals at the surf school before doing so).

No restrictions. Before kiting it's best to check with the locals at the surf school (at the beginning of the main beach).

Plenty of bars and restaurants in Bonifacio. Not much life outside of high season.
