An immense wave with the correct conditions. The sandbar is set into place by the seawall creating a classic lefthand rivermouth wave. Needs a solid swell and low tide to produce long, barrelling lefts with heavy currents guarenteed.
Only medium consistency so the protective locals are on it. After heavy rain pollution is cleary visible from several inland waterways and saltmarshes. South of Barbate - parking is restricted.
Head out of Barbate towards Zahara de los Atunes

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
