About This Spot
Mas Pinell is a developed beach-break spot on the Mediterranean coast of northeastern Spain, facing east toward open water. The location features a narrow sandy beach bordered by dense residential development and agricultural land inland. Water conditions are characterized by rough chop rather than organized swells, with average waves under 1 meter. Wind reliability is extremely low at 6.4%, making consistent conditions rare. Average wind speeds of 5.9 knots are marginal for kitesurfing and often inadequate. The spot suits only beginner riders during rare windows when wind strengthens significantly above the mean. The narrow beach and proximity to built structures limit maneuvering space and create rescue complications. The Mediterranean water type produces choppy rather than clean conditions. Winter months typically offer slightly better wind potential than summer. This location functions primarily as a residential beach rather than a dedicated water sports destination, making it suitable only when alternative nearby spots are unavailable.
