Surfing in Italy
A V I S U A L G U I D E
The visualization shows 335 surfing spots on the Italian coastline, flattened, divided by Regions and
Seas that flow through them. Of the 30 best voted spots on magicseaweed.com, we analyzed the
factors that make the spot 'active', that is to say when waves are surfable, like: seabed type, the ideal
swell direction (the wider, the better), the swell range (the bigger the better) and the type of waves.
