Overview

The Porto Pollo spot is located south of Ajaccio, a 1-hour drive away, in front of the Cyrnos camping site.
The place is particularly well-known in the region for practicing kitesurfing safely as it is suitable for beginners.
 
The Cyrnos camping site, popular among kitesurfers, is ideal for staying directly at the spot. The owner is a very friendly and welcoming Corsican.
The camping site is nice, extremely well located, shaded with good sanitary facilities/showers, and every morning at 8:30 AM, the baker makes his rounds.
 
While waiting for the wind in the morning, you can visit the small village of Porto Pollo, discover the magnificent beaches nearby, or explore the hills by mountain bike.
 
In short, the spot is definitely worth visiting for a few days.
