Playa de Campelo

📍 Local Knowledge

Playa de Campelo in Galicia is a fairly exposed beach break that has consistent surf and can work at any time of the year. This rugged spot provides waves that tend to peel to the right, driven by a mix of local windswells and distant groundswells; while it performs best around low tide, it is often crowded when conditions are prime. The best conditions reported for surf at Playa de Campelo occur when a Northwest swell combines with an offshore wind direction from the Southeast, and the best time of year for surfing with consistent clean waves is the month of October.
