Palermo

Palermo is an NE-facing beach break in Addaura, Sicily, Italy. It picks up swell from NNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 98% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SW: light winds or SW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NE onshores chop it up.
