Canyamel is a picturesque surf spot located in one of the most beautiful villages in Mallorca. It's known for its Mediterranean charm and provides a laid-back atmosphere for surfers looking to enjoy the waves. Getting there is easy; just take the Canyamel road from Arta. The village setting adds a nice touch to the overall surfing experience.

The surf here is a variable beachbreak, handling swells mainly from the East and Southeast. On good days, you might find great barrels, but there are also times when the waves can feel mushy and gutless. Canyamel works best with swell sizes starting from about 1 ft (0.3 m). The waves break over sand, offering both left and right directions, which can appeal to different surfers. For the best conditions, keep an eye on the wind; a west wind is preferable. It can handle a range of tide heights from low to high, but it’s more suitable for expert surfers due to its variability.

Recent construction in the area has affected the sandbar, leading to some changes in wave quality, which hasn't been the best for surfers lately. The local crew, known as the Canyamel Boys, are friendly but it's important to show respect and common sense to avoid any hassles. Overall, while not always perfect, Canyamel can still offer some enjoyable sessions when the conditions align.
