Mojácar

Mojácar is a Mediterranean beach break located on Spain's southeastern coast, facing northeast toward open water. The spot features a sandy beach with a developed coastal town backing the shoreline. The shallow nearshore zone extends considerably, creating flat-water conditions suitable for learning. Visible rock formations and reef patches in the water indicate natural obstacles requiring navigation awareness. Best conditions occur with northwesterly winds (315°), which approach parallel to the coast and create side-shore conditions. The extremely low wind reliability (2.5%) and minimal average swell (0.55m) make this primarily a flat-water training location rather than a swell-dependent spot. Water temperatures average 20°C year-round, requiring spring/autumn wetsuits. The developed beach with buildings and infrastructure suggests moderate foot traffic. This spot suits beginners and intermediates seeking protected, shallow-water practice in relatively calm conditions. Strong swimmers and those comfortable in low-wind scenarios will find the most utility here. Summer months may see crowding from beach tourism.
