Playa de Espana

📍 Local Knowledge

Playa de España in Asturias is an exposed beach and reef break offering reliable surf, although it is frequently flat during the summer months. This spot provides mainly right-hand waves from an equal measure of groundswells and windswells; while it is best surfed around mid tide, visitors should be mindful of potential crowds and submerged rocks when it is working. The best conditions occur when a Northwest swell combines with South offshore winds, with December being the prime month for consistent, clean waves.
