Surf Gran Canaria: common questions

What is the best surf spot on Gran Canaria today?

El Confital scores highest today at 6.4 out of 10, best around 1 PM to 6 PM.

Where are the waves on Gran Canaria?

The north coast around Las Palmas (La Cicer, La Barra, El Lloret) picks up Atlantic swell from the north and northwest. The east coast works on north to northeast swell, and the south coast needs a southerly or strong north-east swell wrapping round the island.

Can I see live webcams of Gran Canaria surf spots?

Yes. Spot pages link to the nearest live stream; Las Canteras and Arguineguín have cams. Streams are third-party and open in a new tab.
