Fuengirola Surf Guide

Fuengirola in Andalucia is an exposed beach break that has fairly consistent surf, although summer tends to be mostly flat. Offshore winds are from the west northwest and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. The short fetch makes for windswells rather than groundswells and the best wave direction is from the east southeast. Waves at the beach are both lefts and rights. Surfable at all stages of the tide. It's sometimes crowded here. Watch out for rips and rocks.
