Costa Rei, with its 10 km long white sandy beach, can also be reached in just 35 minutes.  <\/p><p>In addition to windsurfing and kitesurfing, there are spots for surfing.

The warm summer evenings invite you to enjoy an aperitif on the beach.<\/p><p>The months of April to June and September to November are ideal for active travellers, as temperatures are much more moderate than in summer (between 20 and 30 degrees) with little rainfall \u2013 perfect for hiking, climbing, cycling or excursions.<\/p><p>The winter months are more varied in terms of weather. While some days are sunny and warm at 20 degrees, you can also expect rain and storms. The south of the island is generally a bit warmer than the north. Most holiday resorts are deserted, and restaurants and shops are closed. The island is lush and green, everything is growing and blooming, and there is a sense of calm in the air.    <\/p><p>The sea is warm enough for swimming from May to November.

These include constant natural movement, a sense of purpose in life, downshifting &amp; relaxing, eating to maximum 80% capacity, consuming mainly plant-based &amp; natural foods, moderate drinking (e.g. Cannonau, preferably in company), community and a spiritual practice, living in a family environment and strong social contacts.
