Playa de Bastiagueiro in Galicia is a very sheltered beach break that has quite reliable surf and can work at any time of the year. This popular spot provides mainly right-hand waves driven by an equal mix of local windswells and distant groundswells; while it performs best around high tide, it is very likely to be crowded when conditions are prime and surfers should be mindful of potential pollution. The best conditions reported for surf at Playa de Bastiagueiro occur when a Northwest swell combines with an offshore wind direction from the South-southeast, and the best time of year for surfing with consistent clean waves is the month of February.
