Kitesurfing at A Lanzada

A Lanzada is the most famous windsurfing and kitesurfing beach in Galicia, a long crescent of sand on the isthmus that links the O Grove peninsula to the mainland. With open ocean on one side it catches both the northerly Nortada and southerly fronts, giving everything from sheltered water to lively waves. A true Atlantic classic that works much of the year.

Best wind directions: N, NW, S, SW
