Pals
Costa Brava & Barcelona
Auszug aus dem KITE AND WINDSURFING GUIDE:
Way south of Cape of Creus, Pals is the best break around these parts in northerly Tramontana. Within limits though; Pals only works when it's nuking further north – even when it's small sails at 'Port de la Selva', there could be nothing here. But when the wind does push through, conditions are phenomenal. Big, clean waves with cross-shore wind from the left allow high jumps and quality frontside riding. The best Tramontana time is February to April; look inland to see the snow-capped Pyrenean peaks – wonderful! (The wind is suitably cold though.) But conditions in Pals can be relaxed too – south-westerly Garbí (cross-off from the right) might be gusty but isn’t bad for freeride. South-easterly Xaloc is ideal for kiting – even north-easterly Gregal is fun, sometimes with small waves to jump. Onshore Levante is no good though. Launch by the red-&-white antennae.
