Catania - La Playa is a surf spot located in the center of the gulf, offering surfers a decent place to catch some waves. It has a hard sand bottom and can be accessed easily from the center of Catania by following the signs to Lido Capannine. The spot is not usually crowded, which makes it a nice option for those looking for a bit of space to enjoy their session.
The waves here tend to form an A-frame peak and work best with southeast swells. Winds from the west are preferred for optimal conditions. You can expect the swell to handle sizes around 2ft (roughly 0.6 meters) and the waves break over sand. Surfers can ride both left and right, making it suitable for those just starting out as well as more experienced surfers. The best tides to surf here are low, mid, and high, which gives a good range for different levels of experience.
Keep in mind that the currents can be strong at times, so it’s a good idea to be aware of your surroundings.
