Costa Teguise

Costa Teguise is an ESE-facing reef break in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, Spain. It picks up swell from N to NE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 83% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the WNW: light winds or WNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while ESE onshores chop it up.

Rare slot: a gap beside Fuerteventura lets in swell from 206° (SSW) and nothing either side. It only lines up when a storm sits in that exact direction, more than 598 km out. How slot swells work
