The north and northwest are good swell direction and for the wind the south and southeast. The wave’s quality is regional classic with frequency that operates from time to time. In spring, the waves swell size is from 1.3-2 m (4-6.5 ft) to 2-3 m (6.5-10 ft) and the wind blows onshore at 80% of the time. In winter, we have waves with swell size from 2 to 3 m (6.5-10 ft) and the wind blows onshore at 70%. In autumn, we have waves with the same swell size as in winter and the wind blows onshore at 75%. In summer, the wind blows onshore at 87% and the wave swell size is 1.3-2 m (4-6.5 ft).
