L'Almadrava

L'Almadrava is a Mediterranean beach break located on Spain's eastern coast facing due east toward the sea. The spot features a sandy shoreline backed by extensive agricultural development and the AP-7 motorway, which runs parallel to the coast. Water conditions are generally calm with light swell and modest wind patterns typical of the western Mediterranean. The area shows dense land use with olive groves and cultivated fields inland, connected by dual highways. Best wind direction is from the north (0°), providing side-shore conditions. With average wind speeds of only 7.4 knots and 15.2% reliability, this spot requires patient timing and works best during stronger wind events. The minimal wave height of 0.55m makes this suitable for beginners seeking flat-water conditions or light-wind practice. Water temperature averages 18.3°C, requiring a wetsuit for extended sessions. The developed coastline means facilities are accessible, though the spot experiences variable conditions and infrastructure proximity may affect the experience.
