About Basti Pequeño
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces N (343°), so it takes swell from the N. The wind blows offshore from the S (163°). It is sheltered to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 6–20 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 750 m out (1 in 76). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would spill softly. The sea is about 13°C in February, its coldest month (4/3 wetsuit and boots), and 18°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). The town to stay in is A Coruña, 4.4 km away (about 10 min by car). Within 5 km we also list 2 surf spots.
Water about 15°C: 4/3 wetsuit and boots. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
