Cala Llonga faces E, away from the prevailing Atlantic swell. For surfing that means it needs a specific direction to work rather than picking up the everyday groundswell, so it is a spot to check rather than assume.

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 calm, northeast-facing family cove near Santa Eulalia, about 200 m long and 90 m wide, with fine white sand on beach and seabed and no reef or surf break — a flat, sandy bay for swimming, snorkelling, diving, pedalo, and SUP rather than surfing or kitesurfing. Kitesurfing here is generally restricted to November-May. Dogs are barred May-October. Lifeguards cover mid-May to 15 October, with an adapted bathing service and rescue jet ski.
