When the Scirocco starts to push from the Mediterranean or when the Grecale violently arrives, Portonovo transforms itself, becoming a place of unforgettable storms and attracting surfers from all over the world. Although the Adriatic Sea is not known by most for the waves is an area that offers periodically excellent conditions for surfing. If you explore the Conero Riviera on a rough day at sea at any time of year, you will surely find someone who is enjoying the waves!

The shape of our seabed is particularly suitable for the formation of waves, thanks to the exposure of some bays towards the ideal sea sectors from which the greatest perturbations come.

Compared to the summer season where high pressure and good weather master, winter and autumn are certainly the most frequent periods of the year, thanks to the large perturbations that bring ideal currents for the formation of waves. The enemy is the cold, but is always overcome by the power of passion, the grit and the irrepressible desire to experience that indescribable feeling of sliding on the water.

Although the summer is not characterized by the same winter perturbations, there are several days to surf, for more in costume!

But what surf quality do we talk about?
In general, the pipes coming from N / NE / ENE generate waves not above 2 meters, on average 1.5 meters, which go off in a few hours because of the little fetch (wave mirror for the generation of waves). When the sea storm comes from S / SE / ESE instead, we have a wave growth that happens in hundreds of km … giving the possibility to the waves to grow, distance and acquire power! As for Windsurfing, the sirocco is a blessing for us; with certain conditions, with the right direction and the right push …. can reach walls of water over 3 meters!

The Conerostyle School offers courses to learn the Surf, for children, for beginners, amateurs but also veterans who simply want to improve their technique. In addition, the Conerostyle School has rental material for the wave days. The school will have 5 days of OPEN DAY throughout the season (1 per month) where, in a few hours, we will present the surf to those who have never heard of it, we will explain the tables, the materials, we will tell the story, the legends, how the sea works, what binds us so much to water and how this indescribable passion for this sport was born. The dates of these meetings will come communicated through the site and through the social media of the Conerostyle School.
