Spot functioning
Summer is best. The beach orientation makes the thermal wind blow stronger here than most other Valencia spots — a few extra knots compared to neighboring beaches. Garbí SE onshore, picks up afternoon. Almost virgin beach, free of obstacles and bathers — safe for all levels including beginners.
Spring/Autumn: Also good, thermal active.
Winter: Less consistent, N/NE winds work but lighter.
