La Ballena is a west-facing beach break located on the southern Spanish coast near Cádiz, bordered by Mediterranean shallow waters. The spot features a long sandy beach with residential development integrated into the landscape, creating a mixed-use coastal environment. Characterized by consistent light-swell conditions averaging 0.74m, this location suits beginner to intermediate kiters seeking manageable wave heights. Wind reliability is notably low at 5.1%, with average winds of 6.6 knots, suggesting this is a marginal spot requiring favorable weather windows. The best-side-shore wind direction is northerly (0°), though wind patterns appear inconsistent throughout the year. Water conditions remain relatively protected due to beach break morphology, reducing strong current hazards. Kiters should exercise caution regarding residential proximity, respecting swimmer zones and beach usage patterns. The shallow water near shore requires attention to tide levels to avoid contact. This spot functions as a learning location during optimal wind conditions but demands patience due to unreliable wind generation.
