In context.
A long (1,400m), wild, fine-sand beach with a nudist area on its north side, regarded as one of Galicia's top Atlantic surf spots. A sandy beach break produces multiple peaks with left and right waves, consistent year-round on northwest groundswell with offshore S/SE/SW wind; strong winds also draw windsurfing and kitesurfing. Lifeguards staff it mid-June to mid-September; it holds Blue Flag status. Best at low tide; strong undertows are the main hazard.

Can 4Shor provide more accurate forecasts than my existing app?
