El Lloret.

El Lloret is a right-hand point break situated on the northwest edge of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, breaking over a boulder-strewn bottom with a notably steep and fast character. The wave requires at least overhead NW swell to switch on, with the W through N window being the most productive angle. When the swell fills in, punchy, bowly walls peel consistently for up to 200m along the rocks, making it one of the longest rides in the city. Low to rising tide is the productive window, with low tide delivering the sharpest and most powerful sections. A southerly wind is the classic offshore here, arriving with the prevailing trade wind pattern that Gran Canaria enjoys for much of the year. Across the channel a left pointbreak mirrors the setup, occasionally providing a less-crowded alternative when El Lloret is packed. The water quality around the break has improved significantly since the closure of an old fish-processing plant nearby, though debris can still accumulate among the rocks after swell events.
