Waves breaking on sandy bottom, varied conditions
Pozo is located on the eastern coast of Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, Spain, facing the Atlantic Ocean to the east. The spot consists of a sandy beach break with nearby urban development and agricultural areas inland. The water body is open ocean with moderate fetch distance. Wave heights average 0.81m, indicating relatively small, consistent swell rather than powerful groundswell. Wind reliability is moderate at 32%, with average winds of 9.9 knots. The best wind direction is from the north, creating side-shore conditions parallel to the east-facing coast. This spot suits beginners and early intermediates due to small, forgiving waves and manageable wind conditions. Key considerations include shallow water near the beach requiring careful launch and landing, proximity to urban infrastructure and potential boat traffic from the nearby harbor area, and the need to monitor tide changes in the shallow nearshore zone. The spot offers accessible, consistent conditions rather than challenging waves.
