Historical data
Location guide
Playa de Somo, located in northern Spain, is indeed a well-known surfing spot for both locals and tourists. Its geographical position allows a stunning Atlantic swell to come in, creating consistent waves that offer an exhilarating experience that surfers are keen to capture. Thanks to the sandy bottom of the bay, the breaking waves are softer making it an ideal place for beginners. The peak surfing season at Playa de Somo spans from late September until April. During this time, the waves roll in with more ferocity, often reaching heights between one to three meters. I should add, though, that surfing conditions here remain decent year-round, making it a reliable spot for those wishing to enjoy the rush of the surf, regardless of the time of year. Outside of the peak season, smaller waves usually present themselves, typically ranging around one meter (3.2 feet). These conditions are particularly suitable for surfers who are still sharpening their skills or prefer milder surf. Although the water temperature can drop in winter, a good wetsuit will offset the chill. Wind conditions play a significant role in the overall surfing experience. Not to worry, as Playa de Somo often has offshore winds coming from the south. These winds make the surf smoother, sharper, and cleaner. They're perfect for executing maneuvers on the face of the wave. All in all, Playa de Somo offers favorable conditions for surfing highlighted by its consistent swell, varied wave sizes to suit different skill levels, and beneficial wind conditions. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a budding enthusiast, the charming surf experience at Playa de Somo, Spain, will leave you eager to hit the waves again.
