Las Palmas

Las Palmas is an E-facing beach break in Beach of Las Canteras, Canary Islands, Spain. It picks up swell from N to NE, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 76% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the W: light winds or W breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while E onshores chop it up.
