About This Spot
Cambrils is a protected bay on Spain's Costa Daurada coast, featuring a southeast-facing shoreline with shallow, sheltered waters. The spot is characterized by extensive seagrass beds and sandbars that significantly limit the usable riding area. A jetty extends from shore, requiring careful navigation. The bay provides very light, consistent wind exposure with minimal swell generation due to its enclosed nature, making it suitable only for flat-water freestyle or beginner progression in light winds. Water depth varies considerably across the bay due to shallow banks. Best conditions occur with westerly or southwest winds that blow side-shore parallel to the coast. This spot is best suited to beginners and those seeking flat-water practice in calm conditions. The heavy vegetation coverage and shallow depths demand local knowledge and caution. Average wind reliability is very low (5.4%), making consistent sessions rare. Not recommended for intermediate riders seeking challenging conditions or wave riding.
Hazards & Safety
Shallow water and sandbars visible in turquoise zones
Dense seagrass/vegetation beds (dark patches) limiting usable area
Jetty/breakwater structure extending into water - collision risk
Boat traffic indicators (moorings and potential commercial activity)
Limited fetch distance due to enclosed bay configuration
Narrow working area constrained by vegetation and structures
