Isla de Arousa is a sheltered bay-type spot located off the northwest coast of Spain in Galicia. The location features a northeast-facing coastline with a narrow tidal channel connecting to open water. The bay is bounded by developed residential areas to the west and rocky headlands to the east, creating a protected but confined water body. The spot is characterized by shallow waters with sandbars and mudflats, particularly in the southern sections. Wind conditions are modest, averaging 6.4 knots with low reliability at 8.3%, making this location better suited for lighter wind days. Side-shore winds from the northwest work best for this orientation. The spot functions primarily as a beginner-friendly location due to shallow water depths and protected conditions, though navigation through the tidal channel requires awareness of current strength. Water temperatures average 15.8°C, typical for Atlantic Galician waters. The main limitations are low wind consistency, shallow water obstacles, and boat traffic through the main channel. This spot is most suitable for learners or light-wind specialists seeking protected conditions.
