Playa de Esquinzo is a beach located about 5 kilometers south of Cotillo, just before the Esquinzo Canyon. This spot is somewhat tucked away, providing a bit of isolation. As it's under high cliffs, it gets good wind protection, which can be a plus for surfers looking for some decent waves. However, be prepared for a trip that might feel a bit remote, so bring extra water and a spare tire just in case.

The surf at Playa de Esquinzo can be pretty interesting. It works best with swell coming from the Northwest, but it can also handle swells from the Southwest and Northeast. Expect the waves to break over sand, which is good for the beach setup. The wave types here include both lefts and rights, making it a versatile spot for different surf styles. It works well at various swell sizes starting from about 2 feet (0.6 meters) and can be fun for beginners. The best time to catch waves is usually during low to mid tide, though it can produce some surf at high tide too. If conditions are right, you can find some powerful wedges when it's on.

Keep in mind that the area can get crowded, and there’s a bit of localism to deal with. It's common to find other surfers out here, so patience and respect can go a long way. Also, since it's a remote location, always remember to take care of your belongings while at the beach. Overall, Playa de Esquinzo is a solid spot for those looking for a bit of adventure and a chance to catch some good waves.
