But when is the best time to glide across the water on the Italian island with a wingfoil board? The answer depends on your level of experience. Here you can find out which months are best for wingfoiling in Sardinia and what winds you can expect.

The winds in Sardinia

Sardinia is known for its constant and varied wind conditions. The most important winds that play a role for wingfoilers are

Mistral (north-westerly wind): A strong, cool wind that occurs mainly in the fall, winter and spring months and often lasts for several days. Perfect for experienced wingfoilers looking for high speeds and strong conditions.

Scirocco (south-easterly wind): A warm wind that comes from Africa and provides good wingfoil conditions, especially in the transition months.

Thermal winds: In the summer months (June, July, August) the winds are often thermal and provide easier conditions, ideal for beginners and intermediates.
