How La Puntilla works

At first light 07:00Updated four times a day
  • SwellGood

    From the south-west (230°). The best direction for this beach. Period 13 s: long, powerful waves.

  • WindGood

    Almost no wind, 9 km/h. It's glassy.

  • TideCareful

    1.4 m, high and rising. It works on every tide, best on low to mid.

  • SizeGood

    1 m. Its best size: 1.0–2.2 m.

In general

  • The break

    A point at the north end of the main beach, below the town. Rock at the start, then a shifting sandbar.

  • Swell

    A west swell makes it bigger than a south-west swell of the same height.

  • Wind

    South and south-west winds are offshore here. When the afternoon wind blows out the other two, check this one.

  • Tide

    Low to mid tide is best, but it works on every tide.

  • Current

    There is always a current pulling down the bay. From 1.2 m or with a south swell it is strong. On your first time, ask where to go in.
