Why Riders Love It

In summertime it mostly works with thermal wind: it usually starts blowing at 2-4 pm from NE. In case of bad weather you can have wind from NW.

When to Go

The water is quite warm in summer: at worse you will use a shorty. Colder during winter, wetsuit needed.

What to Expect

Somo, and the Cantabria region in general, is a beautiful wave spot. In case of lack of wind, you can rent a surfboard and still have a lot of fun. The tide is very present. Beside the fact that there are waves, which can bother the beginners, it is an easy spot, for about any level.
