Ribadeo is located in a sheltered bay on the Galician coast of northwest Spain, at the mouth of the Eo River estuary. The spot features a northeast-facing shoreline with complex bathymetry including shallow banks, rocky areas, and deeper channels. The bay provides natural protection from large Atlantic swells, resulting in smaller, more manageable wave heights averaging 1.54m. Water conditions are influenced by significant tidal ranges characteristic of this region, creating variable currents. The low wind reliability (3.9%) and modest average wind speed (4.8 knots) suggest this spot is inconsistent for regular kitesurfing but may work during favorable weather windows. Northwest and northwesterly winds offer the best side-shore conditions. The presence of harbor infrastructure, boat traffic, and shallow areas with rocks make this an intermediate-level spot requiring good local knowledge. Best suited for intermediate kiters familiar with tidal dynamics and able to navigate around fixed obstacles. Sessions should be planned around tide states and wind forecasts.
