The exceptional coasts of the Gallura region make it ideal for water sports and windsurfing is one of the most popular. The endless shorelines, the clean water, the climate and the wind combine to create the perfect environment for people who wish to practice this sport.

One of the main characteristics of the area is the almost constant presence of the wind throughout the year.
The area around "Isola dei Gabbiani", not far from Palau, has become a particularly popular destination for wind-surfers from all over Europe, who are attracted by the favourable temperature of the air and water all year round.

The diffusion and popularity of the sport have meant that numerous schools and windsurf centres have sprung up recently all over the region, providing equipment and courses for those wishing to practice this fascinating sport for the first time.
