Hazards

URBAN CROWDS The most popular surf beach in Catalonia — expect company in the water, especially on good winter swells.
SANDBAR Sandy bottom producing peaky lefts and rights — the right-hand peak is the most popular and gets the most crowded.
POLLUTION Urban beach — check water quality after heavy rain when city storm drains can affect conditions.
OFFSHORE WIND Works from as little as 2ft, best with an E/NE swell and a west wind.
