With a bodyboard you catch a wave on the first day, which rarely happens with a surfboard.
Bodyboard hire in Cagliari
The simplest board for catching your first waves at Poetto. We confirm availability during opening hours.
When you need a bodyboard
The bodyboard is the most direct way into the waves: you catch them lying down, you do not have to stand up and it forgives almost every mistake of position. That is why it works with children, with anyone who has never surfed and on days when the wave is small and a big board will not get going. The size is chosen on the height and weight of the person using it: a board that is too short sinks, one that is too long becomes hard to steer. Fins are not an optional extra if you want to catch waves further out, because they are what gets you into the wave at the right moment. Message us and tell us who will be using it.
- Families with children who want to play in the waves
- Anyone who has never surfed and wants to try without lessons
- Anyone spending a few days at Poetto or along the coast
- Anyone looking for something compact to take to the beach

Bodyboard hire FAQs
How do I choose the right size?
The rule of thumb is that the board standing up should come roughly to the navel of the person using it: shorter and it sinks under their weight and will not plane, longer and it becomes hard to turn inside the wave. Tell us the height and weight of the people and we will prepare the right sizes for your dates.
Do I need fins?
If you stay where the wave is already breaking you can do without them, but if you want to catch the wave before it breaks the fins are what let you accelerate at the right moment. Without them you are almost always late. For children in shallow water they are usually not needed.
Is it suitable for an adult beginner?
Yes, and it is why many adults start here rather than with surfing: the fun arrives on the first outing instead of after weeks. All you need is a size suited to your weight, because an undersized board sinks and takes away all the lift.
Where is the best place to use it in Cagliari?
Poetto is the natural choice for convenience and its sandy bottom, and it works well on days with short waves. With a flat sea a bodyboard has little to do: in that case consider a SUP, which works exactly when there is no swell.
