La Concha

La Concha is an NNW-facing beach break in San Sebastián, Basque Country, Spain. It picks up swell from WNW to NNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 75% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SSE: light winds or SSE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NNW onshores chop it up.
