Surfing
Levanto has some
of Italian biggest lefts. Levanto's big bay offers several peaks and is partly
protected on the south side. It takes a big S/W swell to make it pump. Holds
up to 8-10 ft especially in the middle of the bay where big left tubes and nice
rights make it worth the drive from the Versilia area. Seldom crowded, clean
water.
The best months are March to May or September to November when the waves are
more regular and the water is still warm.
