WaterWaves + rocky groynes
A technical wave spot on the rocky Western Ligurian Riviera, needing a real winter low-pressure system (Libeccio or Scirocco) to turn on. Cramped launch boxed in by piers and groynes with heavy shore break — wing foiling is only workable well clear of the shore here, not a straightforward yes.

Getting thereIn Porto Maurizio (Imperia centre). Easy town access; parking near the beach and harbour mole.
HazardsUrban beach with harbour mole and rocky breakwaters — experienced riders only. Gusty and variable wind (especially SW/Libeccio). Limited space and beach users in summer. Waves can be challenging.
Best time of dayApril–November (best off-season or shoulder for space and cleaner wind). Strong SW systems deliver the classic sessions.
