You can find very good waves at this spot. With NE it is quite choppy but a few meters to the south you find another beach with flat water. With S an SE there are very good waves with quite flat water on the rest. Sometimes could be some current up to 2 knots approx. Only a few underwater rocks on the north end of the beach.
The beach is wide with no special regulations. Nice and soft sand. You can drive there with a 4x4. In winter there is nobody there, but in the summer it is full of people, but you can ride anyway, because there is plenty of space for launching.
Approx. 2-3 kiteable days per week. Usual directions SE, S and NE. Winter: best wind is SE and S, from 10-35 knots. Depending of frontal systems. Summer: best wind is NE. It is a thermal wind starting at 1pm approx. up to 20 knots, but it is not very predictable. You can also get on summer some frontal systems from the South an SE.
