Peñarrubia surf guide

Peñarrubia is a medium-quality surf spot located between the playas Cagonera and Cervigon. It's a left-hand reef break that works best at low to mid-tide. Keep in mind that it's only moderately consistent, as it requires a decent swell to really get going. When the conditions align, though, it can provide some fun waves for those willing to wait for the right moment.

The optimal swell direction for Peñarrubia is Northwest, but it can also handle swells coming from the West and North. The spot performs well with swell sizes around 5ft (1.5 meters) and breaks over an uneven reef. Expect mostly left waves, which can be a nice change for surfers who are used to right-handers. For the best experience, aim for a Southeast wind and make sure you're catching it during the lower tides.

This spot tends to get crowded, especially when the surf is decent, so be prepared to share the waves with others. It's a good place for intermediate surfers looking to improve their skills, but it's always a good idea to respect the locals and the lineup. Parking is usually available, making it convenient to get your gear to the beach and hit the waves.
