Playa de Liencres

Playa de Liencres is an NNW-facing beach break in Piélagos, Cantabria, Spain. It picks up swell from W to N, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 68% 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.
