Istantilla

Istantilla is an S-facing beach break in Huelva, Andalusia, Spain. It picks up swell from SSW to WSW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 80% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the N: light winds or N breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while S onshores chop it up.
