About Mejillones

Mejillones is a reef break (rocky bottom) on the north coast of Fuerteventura, facing north.

It works best with a north-west swell and a south wind, which blows offshore here and keeps the waves clean. It usually breaks best from mid to high tide; at low tide the bottom gets shallow, so take care.

Recommended level: intermediate. Watch out for crowded line-ups, localism and rocks.
