Ciruelo surf guide

Ciruelo is a surf spot located near the fishing harbor, easy to find as it's visible from the main road, just a turn at the main store. It's a place that's not always crowded, making it a nice option if you're looking to avoid the busy spots. The left-hander here is notable, as it works best on long period SW swells, especially on days when the wind is calm. You might not find the best waves all the time, but it's decent enough for a session if conditions align.

When it comes to surfing at Ciruelo, the waves can handle sizes up to around 3 ft (about 1 meter). The best results happen with swell from the South and SouthWest, and it breaks over an uneven reef, which can add some fun challenges. The left waves can be thick and bowl-like, and there are some sections that offer tubes, but they're not always easy to catch, so it's better suited for intermediate surfers. If you time it right, the wave is a joy to ride, especially with a north wind and during low to high tide.

If you're thinking about heading out, keep in mind that joining a fishing trip is also an option at Ciruelo. This spot's vibe is relaxed, so even on days with less than perfect surf, you can find something to do nearby. Just make sure you've got your gear ready for when the waves are on!
