La Izquierda de la Triangular is a short, bowly lefthander that breaks over an uneven reef at the eastern end of La Salvaje beach. The take-off zone is small, and protruding rocks make it moderately dangerous.
When It Works
The reef pulls in swell from the west through to the north (W-N), but lined-up west (W) swells on medium-sized days are what really switch it on. It's usable from 1.2 m / 4 ft to 3.7 m / 12 ft.
Wind and Tide
Look for south (S) offshore wind. The wave breaks best at low tide, with a rising tide generally the better call.
Local Tips
This one is for experts. The small take-off zone fills up fast, so expect a crowded lineup when it's working.
Access
There's a car park with paid parking. Spaces are fine in winter, camper vans included, but they're restricted and metered in summer. You'll find showers, a lifeguard, and a surf school, with camping nearby. Watch for estuarine and stormwater pollution, especially after heavy rains.
