What to expect
Powerful cross-offshore wind and punchy waves that demand experience and small kit; summer afternoons are relentlessly windy. Beginners learn in calmer spots down the coast, not here.
How to start
Base at Pozo Izquierdo, where the wave centres and world-cup beach are. Come in July–August for the strongest wind, and bring or rent small-wave kit.
