Overview

Playa del Puntal is inside the Ría de Villaviciosa estuary. Standing-depth flat water navigable for ~4 hours around high tide. Too small for kite according to local guides — more suited for windsurf. Tidal currents pull into the channel. Protected from Atlantic swell. Beginner-friendly conditions but limited space.
