Playa de Sopelana Swimming Forecast

Sopela · Spain

Playa de Sopelana scores 76/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces NW. A sandy-bottomed beach break with rideable surf year-round at any tide, generally forgiving, though rocks can expose at the edges at low tide. Blue Flag certified, with separate zones designated for surf, windsurf and kitesurf away from the swimming area in bathing season. Lifeguarded by Cruz Roja 1 June-30 September, 11:00-20:00. Neighbouring stretches of coast turn rockier and more hazardous, but this sandy section suits calmer, beginner-friendly use.
