Pena Roja Surf Report & Forecast

Local Knowledge

Pena Roja in Pais Vasco is an exposed beach break that offers pretty consistent surf and can work at any time of the year. This spot primarily produces right-hand waves from an equal measure of windswells and groundswells; while it is best surfed around low tide and can even handle light onshore winds, visitors should be mindful that it is a fairly popular wave that can become crowded and may be subject to pollution. The best conditions occur when a North-northwest swell combines with South-southeast offshore winds, with December being the prime month for consistent, clean waves.
