## Conditions at Playa de Puerto Naos

Playa de Puerto Naos is open to the sea from the **S–NW**, so waves build there when the wind blows from those directions. Land shelters it from the NNW–SE.

Over the next 7 days it's good or better on Sat, Sun and Mon and a no-go on Wed (surge). Thu and Fri are only a trend so far.

When it's rough here, try [Los Cancajos](https://scubaforecast.com/scuba-diving-weather/spain/canary-islands/la-palma/los-cancajos) (17 km, sheltered from the S–NW).

The water is warm to about 40 m.
