Nora’Bay
History and sea are the setting for this fantastic kite spot
Fine white sand with sides rich in Mediterranean life here are dominated by a tower of the sixteenth century and made fascinating by the ruins of ancient civilizations of the Roman era, first Phoenician then Carthaginian. All this make Nora a particular and unique destination.
Nora is one of the most famous beaches in Pula.
Well-known and unique are the Roman ruins, which from the promontory drop down into the sea; ancient houses, submerged in the bay, have stood still for centuries (II and III century A.D).. Snorkeling can be practiced in mid-water in respectful silence: streets, houses and Roman remains in the depths of the isthmus.
The bay is defined in width by a Capo Pula cliff up to the promontory, with a view of the splendid Coltellazzo tower (16th century). This location makes it particularly sheltered from the winds.
The sea here is crystal clear with a shallow seabed, the various shades from green to blue to deep blue invite you to pleasantly get involved in exciting water sports and adventure.
To the east of Nora is located the beach of su Guventeddu, preferred by kite and wind surfers. Here, in addition to admiring the unique beauties of the place and a dream beach, you can practice Kitesurfing.
The kite spot is optimal especially with Grecale and Levante winds, which can create challenging waves to ride.
