El Masnou Surf Guide

El Masnou in Catalunia is an exposed sandbar break. Summer in particular tends to be flat. Works best in offshore winds from the northwest. Short period wind swells are the rule and the best wave direction is from the east southeast. The sandbar breaks offer left-handers. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. When it's working here, it can get crowded. Take special care here if it gets very crowded.
