Farinole surf guide

Farinole is a surf spot located north of St. Florent, along the beautiful Cap Corse area. It attracts surfers looking for a relaxed vibe, thanks to its easy beach-side parking and stunning views. The beaches here are a mix of sand and uneven reef, creating an interesting backdrop for a day of surfing.

This spot works well with west and north swells, handling sizes from about 0.3 meters (1 ft) up to several meters. You can catch waves breaking both left and right, suitable for those with intermediate skills. The best times to surf at Farinole are during low to mid tides, especially when the wind blows from the southeast. The surf quality can vary; while you might get a decent session, don’t expect it to be the best every time.

Many surfers from Bastia choose to make the trip to Farinole over other areas, especially when looking to avoid the crowded spots around Miomo. Just be aware that heading north of Farinole can lead you to cliffs and stony beaches that are less surf-friendly.
