Derecha de los Alemanes is a surf spot that draws attention for its decent conditions throughout the year. Positioned to take advantage of the NorthWest swell, it can also work with SouthWest and East swells. You'll find a bit of a sandy bay to paddle out from, but be ready for a long journey to the lineup, especially considering the strong low tide currents that can push you towards the next bay. Summer sees a good number of campers from Gran Canaria and nearby islands, but don't worry too much about crowds; it usually stays below capacity.

The waves here break over an uneven reef and primarily roll in as right-handers. This spot works best with a swell size around 2ft (about 0.6 meters), making it an intermediate-friendly location. You can expect to see long, performance walls, especially when the conditions align with a light onshore breeze. For the best experience, aim for low to mid tides, and keep in mind that a SouthEast wind is generally preferred.

While it can be fun, the setup means that you’ll need to know what you’re doing. The reef can have its tricky moments, and since it’s mostly suited for intermediate surfers, make sure you’re comfortable out there. If you bring the right attitude and skills, Derecha de los Alemanes can offer a rewarding surf session.
