El Callado surf guide

El Callado is a surf spot located at Playa del Arenal. It's generally known for its decent year-round consistency, making it a go-to for locals and visitors. The vibe is relaxed, but be prepared for some crowds, especially on good days. The surroundings are pretty park-like, giving you a nice place to chill when you’re not in the water.

The wave breaks over boulders, and you can ride both left and right on the reef. It handles swell sizes starting at 2 ft (about 0.6 meters) and works best with swells coming from the NorthEast and NorthWest. The best time to surf is during low, mid, or high tide, with favorable winds coming from the South. This spot is best suited for intermediate surfers, so be confident in your skills before paddling out.

Besides El Callado, there are other surf spots nearby, including El Roquete just across the channel. You might also find a few bodyboard waves on the other side of the port, giving you some more options if you want to explore the area. Overall, it’s a solid pick if you’re looking for a place to catch some waves.
