From James McMahon, of Bridgehampton’s Salty Sessions:
The Ligurian Sea
If you're in Europe and want to surf the Mediterranean, I'd say Forte dei Marmi is probably one of the best places you can go. It’s basically the Hamptons of Northern Tuscany — with a big, beautiful beach.
My friend owns The Pier Surf School there. If you want to head to the beach and have surf lessons, that’s the guy, and that’s the place.
What the Waves Are Like
You wouldn’t necessarily think of Italy as having surf, but they get little waves — similar to what we have here in the Hamptons in summer. A little smaller, a little more gutless, but they’re still waves.
It’s perfect for learning. His Instagram is full of kids riding small waves, getting their start. It’s exactly what you'd want for an introduction to surfing in the Med.
Inside Tip 📌
The owner’s name is Davide. He’s a great guy, knows the area, knows the breaks. It’s the kind of spot where local knowledge really matters, and he has it dialed in.
