Sicily reopens for kitesurfing!
Italy finally opens its boarders so we don’t have to live much longer without our favourite kitesurfing spot in Europe. Most of the flights will start in July, and there will be some more options (direct flights) from August. For EU citizens there WON’T be obligatory quarantine after entering the country.
Tickets to Sicily for this summer!
We collected some flights for you to all 3 airports of Sicily: Palermo, Catania and Trapani. Since renting a car is a must once you arrive to Sicily, you can consider any of these airports. The closest one to the kitespot is Trapani, but that’s also the smallest. Most direct flights go to Catania, which is a 3-4 hours drive from our base in Birgi. If you’re thinking about flying to Catania, you should plan a roadtrip with a few stops along the way, the island has a lot to offer besides kitesurfing..
Here you can find some ideas what to check on your way :https://followthewind.eu/sightseeing/
Palermo is only an hour drive from the lagoon and luckily most of the airlines fly there regularly.
Check your options and join us in our empty lagoon for some kitesurfing! The season is just starting J
