Condojanni is a surf spot located 10 km east of Bova, right at the river-mouth of the Condojanni river. It’s not a crowded place, so you can generally find some space to catch a wave without having to deal with too many surfers. The water is usually pretty clean, making it a decent choice for a surf session. There’s something for everyone, but it’s not really a well-known hotspot, so you can enjoy a laid-back vibe while you surf.
The waves here can be quite interesting. You’ll typically find an A-frame setup that offers longer, speedy lefts peeling over a mix of shallow cobblestones and sand. The spot handles swell sizes starting from about 2 ft. (0.6 m) and can be responsive to swell from the SouthEast. It’s also decent when the swell comes from the NorthEast. Just keep in mind, strong onshore winds won’t work well here, but light sideshore winds are manageable. It’s a great spot for intermediate surfers, especially since it can provide some nice rides when other spots like Bova have flattened out.
When it comes to tide, Condojanni works well at low, mid, and high tide depending on the conditions at the time. You can expect waves breaking over boulders and sand, giving you a diverse surfing experience. The preferred wind direction is from the NorthWest, so check the forecast to catch it at its best.
