La Santa Izquierda surf guide

La Santa Izquierda is a well-known surf spot located just north of the town's harbour. It features a powerful left and right peak that breaks over an uneven reef. This wave is particularly popular among local surfers, making it one of the most ridden spots on the island. However, due to its popularity, it can get pretty crowded, and localism is often an issue. It's important to respect the locals and the lineup etiquette when surfing here. Make sure to leave nothing in your car as well.

The left wave at La Santa Izquierda tends to be the longer and more sought after, but both the left and right produce solid tubes. The spot does well with swell sizes around 2 to 8 feet (0.6 to 2.4 meters) and can handle various swell directions, particularly NorthWest is optimal, but West and North also work. The waves are best surfed during mid to high tide and with an east wind. This is definitely a spot for expert surfers, so be prepared for some serious action in the water.

Aside from its impressive wave quality, the spot's local vibe can make it challenging for newcomers. The heavy conditions mean you should be confident in your skills if you decide to paddle out. Overall, La Santa Izquierda is a challenging surf spot that demands respect and capability from those who wish to ride its powerful waves.
