La Barrosa

La Barrosa is a WSW-facing beach break in Chiclana, Andalusia, Spain. It picks up swell from SW to WNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 68% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the ENE: light winds or ENE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while WSW onshores chop it up.
