About the spot

Capitolo south of Monopoli is a kite area used by Puglia Wind Riders. The operator names northerly and northwesterly winds for this Adriatic coast and also moves elsewhere according to weather and season. Lido Bamboo provides an area reference.

Sandy sections are limited by more structured stretches of shoreline. Before riding independently, establish the entry, obstacles and return route. Beginners need organised instruction. An actually permitted sports access is essential during bathing periods; an older school address is insufficient.
