General Description
BEST WAVE IN MALAGA.
Only works on a big swell. But when it does be ready because it’s heavy. Can handle a solid swell. No closeouts - a long peeling left Barrels on 10s+ swells. 3metres+. Beware of locals.
Anything below 3m or if looking a bit too gnarly check out Playa del Seghers around the corner.
Beware entry. Enter near river mouth on the right of the beach. Strong rip near the manmade pier. Rocks on sides of the bay. If there’s locals out approach with care. Best on N and NW winds. December and January it’s firing.
DO NOT JUMP OFF THE PIER INFRONT OF THE LOCALS. Paddle out from the beach is necessary to even be allowed in the water.
Large crowds gather on the right day and the vibes are great.
