Hazards

Shallow flat water with potential rocks and uneven bottom near shoreAtlantic swell and occasional strong currents despite flat water designationLow average wind speeds requiring optimal conditions and timingAtlantic weather systems can bring sudden squalls or wind shifts

Launch notes

Flat water makes for easy launches and smooth riding ideal for beginners. Avoid launching during high tide when shallow areas become more congested; early morning or late afternoon typically offers better conditions.

Gear & clothing

Gear · Bring 14-17m kites for the light average winds (10.3 kts); a 12m as backup for stronger SSW/S wind days. Twin-tip or directional boards work well in the calm flat water conditions.

Clothing · A 4/3mm wetsuit is essential year-round for Atlantic waters off Galicia; spring months (March peak season) still require thermal protection. Water temperatures rarely exceed 14°C even in summer.

Crowd & etiquette

Respect local beach users and maintain distance from swimmers and fishermen common in this region. Always check local regulations before launching as Galician beaches may have seasonal restrictions.

Additional notes

March offers the best wind consistency with 73 windy days annually concentrated in shoulder seasons. Plan trips around NE and S wind patterns which dominate, and check local Galician weather forecasts carefully as conditions can be marginal.
