Spot de La Pared

La Pared

La Pared

Overview

La Pared is a powerful wave spot on the west coast of Fuerteventura, at the narrowest point of the island where the JandĂ­a peninsula meets the main island. The beach faces west, catching the full force of Atlantic swells.

This is a surf and kitesurf wave spot with powerful, fast-breaking waves. The wind from the NE trades is cross-offshore to side-offshore, creating clean wave faces but also making it dangerous for less experienced riders.

La Pared is famous in the surf community for its consistent waves and dramatic volcanic cliff scenery. For kitesurfers, it's an advanced-to-expert spot offering world-class wave riding conditions.
