This is a beautiful spot. It has often the most consistent swells of Galicia and works in various conditions. It is one of the best beach breaks in Galicia and Spain. A lot of competition are held here. The beach has numerous peaks. There is a channel on the right.
Gracias chicos de Pantin!
Hola! I wanted to say thank you to some of the really sweet locals who offered to help us (me, my man and our 2 year old daughter) out when we visited Pantin recently. Our brakes went on the van and we had Emilio and his friend offering to help us and another car full of locals . Made a shit situation completely bearable by being so kind! Hope if you ever come to the UK you will get the same treatment - you will here at my home- Bantham...Gracias...

Shit in every bush!!
I came to Galicia last september with a samll group off reinds and we travelled thorugh much of the area and recognized very similar situations that occur all over seasonal destinations including the popular surf area that we, ourselves come from. People learning to surf dropping in on people without realising it etc, also people camping in places they shouldn't. When I was there many of the campsites were closed and locked up and so we had to look for out of the way places to camp, we kept all of our rubbish and left no shit in the bushes! Don't you think that instead of being aggressive towards the tourists it is your local council you should have issues with. By not enforcing the no camping laws they are depriving local camp sites of money, and local people of jobs on these campsites. Also once out in the surf the localism was so rife it just seemed pathetic considering how empty some of the breaks were. Especially when most of the local people seemed to be on bodyboards and couldn't surf anyway. Seriously you should embrace travelling surfers as a good local source of income. In some areas it seemed much needed and maybe if people weren't so aggressive about it people would be more willing to cooperate anyway. If you guys travelled to my local break I'm sure they'd be many people willing to help you out!!Kepp cool and make sure you don't shit on your own doorstep even if everyone else is.
