Surf Break: Bolonia

Bolonia in Andalucia is a fairly exposed beach break that has fairly consistent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Works best in offshore winds from the northeast. Windswells and groundswells in equal measure and the ideal swell direction is from the southwest. Waves at the beach break both left and right. Rarely crowded here.
