El Astillero surf guide

El Astillero is a beach break located near a rivermouth, offering surfers a decent spot to catch some waves. It’s not one of the top-tier locations, but it's still worth a visit for those in the area. The setting includes a mix of sand and rocks, and the vibe here is pretty relaxed.

This spot is best when the swell comes from the south or southwest. It can handle swell sizes starting at around 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) and is known for producing some rights that can be hollow and powerful, especially near the rivermouth. The waves here go both left and right, making it suitable for surfers at an intermediate level. The best time to surf is at low to mid tide, and the ideal wind direction is northeast.

Aside from the waves, the lineup does have a few rocks, so watch your step. This spot can get crowded at times, so be prepared to share the wave with others. Overall, if you’re in the area and looking for a surf session, El Astillero can be a fun choice for a day on the water.
