I am currently on vacation in northern Italy, in a very beautiful coastal town named Levanto. While I was aware that there was some surf in Italy (albeit fairly minor), I was honestly surprised to find out that this little centro apparently has surf 150 days out of the year. While walking to dinner, my girlfriend and I stumbled upon a surf shop (yes, with actual surfboards) called "Brothers Surfhouse." The young guy working there informed me that this town was one of the better surf destinations in Italy, as it is situated perfectly to catch large southern swells. While he said the surf was often fickle, apparently two days before our arrival the local spot was breaking at about two meters. Sounds like I just missed it, and it definitely warrants a surf trip in the near future!
