Solis Grande surf guide

Solis Grande is a surf spot located along the coast of Uruguay, near the Rio de la Plata. It's known for its river mouth that creates some surfable waves when conditions are right. This area generally sees a range of wave quality, and it's often influenced by the local city crowds that gather to catch some waves. The Rio de la Plata, which is quite expansive here, plays a significant role in shaping the surf experience at Solis Grande.

This spot works best with southwest swells, but it can also handle southeast ones. The ideal swell size is around 2 feet (about 0.6 meters). Surfers can enjoy both left and right breaking waves since this location has a nice mix of rivermouth styles. When it comes to wind, north is the preferred direction for the best conditions. Solis Grande can be surfed at low, mid, or high tides, making it quite versatile for those wanting to hit the water. It's recommended for intermediate surfers who are comfortable with varying wave conditions.

Since the waves break over sand, it adds an extra layer of safety compared to rocky spots. However, be prepared for changing conditions based on the swell and wind as they can shift the experience from session to session. If you're in the area, Solis Grande can be a decent choice for a session if you time it right.
