Playa de Pantín

📍 Local Knowledge

Playa de Pantín (Rodo) in Galicia is an exposed beach break that is often working and works all around the year. This legendary spot provides high-quality left and right-hand waves driven primarily by powerful groundswells; while it performs best around low to mid tide and offers some shelter from northeast winds, it is often heavily crowded, which can even make surfing hazardous. The best conditions reported for surf at Pantín 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.
