The Pen of Sopelana
It's time to start surfing and enjoy the beach bars with your feet full of sand and your torso in the wind. To support your mini-malibu or your longboard on the wooden facade and while looking at the sea to embrace good karma.
The northern area has many mandatory stops after surfing. Near Bilbao, on Muskiz beach, you will find The Maloka . Perfect for a beer, a drink and, above all, to enjoy that terrace on the beach itself.
The Txiringuito of Arrigunaga Beach
Without leaving the area it is essential to visit The Txiringuito of Arrigunaga Beach after a session at the skatepark and, if you've been lucky, you'll have caught some waves at Pico Paz to end the day like never before. Or perhaps you have taken a bath in La Salvaje remembering winter swells in neighboring Punta Galea and have stopped at the Aizkorri cliff to have a drink.
The local classic is The Rock of Sopelana either The North Gulf in Barrika , all year round available to the surfer (in summer, if possible, they are better than ever) .

Continuing with the route, a landscape that should never be missed is the Arenal de Somo with views of Santander. Another summer stop is The Yellow Bird on the beach of Oyambre, to have some squid rings and a beer . We could not leave the north just like that without stopping at the Asturian Bahinas beach bar , you well deserve a surf and a cider on this beautiful and sheltered beach.

Heading west, you have to stop, even more so in summer, in the well-known Ferrol area doninos beach . North winds suit him very well: the sandbank offers the best waves you can surf on these dates . At the end, enter yes or yes in Or Alpendre , there the bodyboarder Pichu González awaits you at the front. The plan? Enjoy all that quality that the Celtic land treasures.
And if we explore the south of Galicia we will have to make a stop at the Kannion Surf Bar on Montalvo Beach. If it takes some force, the summer wind from the north will be ideal for the area . Without leaving the Rías Baixas we will pass by Patos beach and take the opportunity to see the sunset of the Cíes Islands at the Chiringuito Bar Patos.
Ducks Bar (Ducks Beach, Nigrán)
What to say about Cadiz! What we all know: Cortijo The Postman , in El Palmar, is a winning option all year round. Offers cold beer and live music (check the schedule) to every surfer who walks along the Vejer de la Frontera straight. If you want wind in Tarifa you have El Tumbao and the art life .
