Ocean Surf Beach faces SW, open to the prevailing westerlies, so the wind arrives off the water rather than filtered through the land — the clean, steady flow kite foiling wants, and the reason gusts here are sea breezes rather than land turbulence.
Today's wind is cross-shore at 11 kn. Straight cross-shore is the classic kite foiling direction: it lets you hold a line along the beach rather than fighting to get back to it.
Over the published window Ocean Surf Beach clears 60/100 for kite foiling at every ability from Beginner to Expert — an unusually broad spot, which normally means a range of conditions rather than one narrow sweet spot. Today, 5 of 11 daylight hours clear that line at Intermediate.
Among the 27 scored spots within reach today, Ocean Surf Beach ranks 20th for kite foiling. The order changes by discipline: the same conditions that put a spot top for one sport can drop it down the list for another.
Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
A flat, exposed, long-established multi-sport beach north of Rome, known for reliable thermal westerly winds in spring and early summer favouring windsurfing and kitesurfing within a designated zone. The shallow, gently sloping sandy bottom also produces small to moderate beach-break waves for surfing and SUP. Sea access runs 09:00-19:00. Lifeguards cover the free-beach sections in season. Strong shore break and lateral current can occur in scirocco winds.
