More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Salt flats hiss on the wind as you step into waist‑deep lagoon water—kite taut, instructor beside you, radio in your ear. The shallow expanse of Lo Stagnone (near Marsala) pulls constant thermal winds that push practice runs long and forgiving, the kind of place where rotations and old‑school grabs feel less risky and more deliberate.
