Gandía is a Mediterranean beach break located on Spain's eastern coast near Valencia, characterized by a wide sandy beach fronting agricultural land and residential development. The coastline faces east toward open Mediterranean waters with gentle offshore bathymetry. The spot offers a long, shallow sandy beach suitable for learning, with consistent summer thermal wind patterns, though wind reliability is notably low at 2.2% annually. Average wave heights of 0.48m indicate small, gentle conditions typical of Mediterranean summer months. The beach provides direct access from developed areas, making logistics straightforward. Water temperatures average 19.3°C, requiring light wetsuits in cooler months. This location suits beginners and intermediate riders seeking flat-water practice in protected conditions. Best winds approach from the north (side-shore parallel to coast). Key considerations include monitoring seasonal beach profile changes, respecting the narrow space between agricultural plots and residential zones, and recognizing that substantial swell events are rare. Summer thermal breezes provide most reliable wind, typically occurring afternoons.
