Valdoviño surf guide

Valdoviño is a popular surf spot located along a beautiful stretch of beach known for its consistent waves. Praia de Frouxeira, in particular, offers long lines with various peaks that can cater to different surf styles. The beach has a relaxed vibe but can get crowded during summer months, especially at the eastern end, where casual beachgoers like to hang out. But don't worry, there’s plenty of space along the rest of the beach for surfers looking to catch some waves.

The surf at Valdoviño is best with a northwest swell but also handles swells coming from the west and north. It's known for beach breaks that form lefts and rights, giving surfers a chance to ride different types of waves. The spot works well when the swell sizes are around 3 feet (about 1 meter) and is better during low to mid tides. Keep in mind that this spot is more suited for expert surfers due to its conditions, as it can get tricky at times.

If you're planning a trip, it's good to remember that the waves can be more consistent when everywhere else is flat. The beach provides solid camping facilities, making it a nice place for those looking to spend a bit of time by the ocean. Just make sure to check the wind direction—southerly winds are preferable for a cleaner surf experience.
