  * **Conditions**
      * From gilisports.com description for SUPs: "This coastline offers a range of paddle boarding opportunities. Summer months offer calm and flat conditions, ideal for beginner paddle boarders to give it a go. Winter though is a different story. The bold Bora winds whip through Trieste which can make the conditions hard to paddle. However, if you have the skills and can face the cold winds, you will be rewarded with spectacular snow-capped mountain views across the horizon."

Given the offshore windfarms near Molise, we suspect there may be some downwinding available??
