Playa cerca de Los Arenales faces E, so the prevailing westerly comes over the land before it reaches you. For kite foiling that usually means a gustier, less predictable flow than the raw wind speed suggests.
Today's wind is offshore at 10 kn. Offshore is the one to be careful with for kite foiling — a failure blows you away from the beach, so it is a spot for a safety boat or a change of plan rather than a solo session.

Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
A long, roughly 3 km, flat, fine-sand urban beach on the Mediterranean facing ENE, backed by a residential urbanisation and adjoining the Clot de Galvany Natura 2000 wetland. The gently sloping bottom stays shallow well offshore with no reef or rock hazards, giving calm water suited to flatwater sports rather than surfing — a marked windsurf zone offers equipment hire. Lifeguard cover runs 1 June-30 September, 10:00-19:00 (20:00 in July-August).
