Praia de Broña faces SW, straight into the prevailing Atlantic swell window — the reason it has waves at all, and the reason it is rarely flat.
Today's wind is cross-shore at 5 kn. Straight cross-shore sits between the two for surfing — the face stays rideable but the wall is less organised than on a clean offshore.
Across the published window Praia de Broña does not clear 60/100 for surfing at any ability — it peaks at 43/100, so this is a spot to watch rather than commit to right now. Today, 0 of 11 daylight hours clear that line at Intermediate.

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 sheltered, 475 m sandy beach of white sand with rock elements on the inner shore of a ria, surrounded by woodland and dune vegetation and sitting within a Natura 2000 protected area. Waters are calm, shallow, and largely current-free, protected from Atlantic swell, making it suited to swimming and scuba diving rather than surfing or kitesurfing. Summer daytime lifeguard cover is provided.
