Cala Tirant

Cala Tirant is the most reliable wave sailing location on the island, and offers a very different setup to most spots. There are various different areas that can be sailed. Depending on the day it can be fun but it can also be a demanding place to sail with big destructive waves. Tirant is sailed with winds from mistral (northwest) to gregal (northeast), which are very onshore winds. The big waves break far out away from the beach before reforming. These are often good for jumping or riding when you sail in the middle of the bay; but care should be taken when you cross from here towards the far shore as waves breaking here can take you straight to the rocks. Once past this section sometimes you can surf frontside (forced!) with the waves that break along the boulder strewn shore. Depending on the day it will be better for jumps on port or starboard tack.
