Visitor Reviews of El Sardinero - Primera
“Playa resguardada, ideal para los temporales de invierno y con vientos del Sur / Oeste.
Fondos de arena.
Olas fáciles hasta 1 metro y fuertes, rápidas y huecas a partir de 1 metro.
Peligroso con 2 metros o mas, sobre todo en bajamar.
Mucha fuerza, tipo Hossegor, lo que proporciona buenos tubos, pero con poca salida (cerrotes).
Mejores las derechas que las izquierdas.
Mejor para Bodysurf y Bodyboard que para Surf; complicada para Longboard y SUP Surf.”
