About
The Mundaka wave, located in the picturesque Basque Country of Spain, is renowned for its world-class, left-hand rivermouth break that produces hollow waves over a sandy bottom, drawing surfers from around the globe. With optimal conditions occurring when swells arrive from the Bay of Biscay, this iconic surf spot holds waves that begin at under 1 meter and can reach heights of over 2 meters, ensuring fantastic rideable days, especially during the winter when surfable days soar past 50%. Not only is Mundaka celebrated for its spectacular surf, having hosted the prestigious ASP World Tour events until its temporary wave disappearance in 2005, but it's also a vibrant part of Spain's surfing culture, making it an essential destination for both aspiring and seasoned surfers alike.
