About the spot

Le Saline near Olbia is a managed sea spot with lessons and boat support. The operator describes southeasterly Sirocco and northeasterly Grecale as cross-onshore, suitable for lessons and freeriding in appropriate conditions. Northwesterly Mistral is partly offshore and requires experience and arranged recovery.

Use the school's agreed area and current corridor. Keep clear of swimmers and boat traffic; saltwater basins behind the beach are not an unrestricted practice area. Le Saline at Stintino is a separate, distant spot.
