Playa de la Garita in Spain offers surfable conditions year-round, but the best months for quality waves are typically during the winter and early spring, with peak consistency from November to March. This period sees the highest percentage of ground swell (61-78%), which provides cleaner, more organized waves compared to wind swell. February stands out with 78% ground swell, followed closely by November and December (both 77%), making these months particularly reliable for solid surf. The mean swell size hovers around 1.6-1.8m during these months, offering consistent overhead conditions for experienced surfers. However, wind conditions are less favorable in winter, with bad winds (onshore or cross-shore) dominating 71-87% of the time, meaning timing sessions around wind shifts or early mornings is crucial. Spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) bring more mixed conditions, with a higher share of wind swell and slightly smaller waves, though April still has a decent 50% ground swell contribution. Summer (June-August) is the least consistent season, dominated by wind swell (92-99%), smaller waves (1.3-1.7m), and frequently poor winds, though June has slightly better wind conditions (36% good). For the best balance of swell quality and size, November is a strong contender—it combines high ground swell (77%) with slightly better wind odds (29% good) compared to mid-winter. Advanced surfers will prioritize winter despite the wind challenges, while intermediates might prefer shoulder seasons for more manageable conditions.
