Oliva Nova

This long beach is THE summer kite spot around here thanks to its consistent thermal. The day's wind usually starts around noon with east to south-easterly Garbí blowing onshore for two or three hours, before slowly turning cross-shore and eventually cross-off southerly Llebech in the afternoon and evening, usually around 20 knots. There’s loads of space for launching, and even in strong thermals the waves are waist-high at most on this very gently shelving beach. Conditions aside, it's worth a visit for its dune landscape and clear water on still mornings.
