About the spot

La Madonnina lies at Arena del Mare on the north side of Pescara's river and harbour outlet. The local school's guide uses this section in northerly wind. The town beach, breakwater and harbour activity make careful launch selection essential.

Stronger wind means rougher water. Beginners should arrange the teaching area with the school. Stay outside the harbour entrance and its currents. Bathing-season access requires current confirmation; an unrestricted permanent town-beach launch is not established.
