Playa del Inglés

Playa del Inglés is an SSE-facing beach break in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain. It picks up swell from S to W, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 68% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the NNW: light winds or NNW breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while SSE onshores chop it up.
