Montgat Surf Guide

Montgat in Catalunia is an exposed sandbar break that does not work very often. Summer in particular tends to be flat. Offshore winds are from the northwest and there is no shelter here from cross shore breezes. Short period wind swells are the rule and the best wave direction is from the southeast. The sandbar break offers both left and right hand waves. Good surf at all stages of the tide. Often Crowded. Take care of the strong rips here.
