Surfing Almaciga (Benijo)

Almaciga (Benijo) is a surf beach in Tenerife, España.

What level is Almaciga (Benijo) for?

Almaciga (Benijo) has no fixed level, and that is the question Surf Booking answers every day: the same sea suits a beginner and does not suit an advanced surfer, or the other way round. On this page the sea at this beach is read hour by hour and by level — beginner, intermediate and advanced — for the next 7 days, and the verdict is this beach's, not the region's.

What is the bottom like at Almaciga (Benijo)?

The bottom is mixed sand and rock. It helps to know where the rocks are, especially at low tide.

When does Almaciga (Benijo) work best?

Almaciga (Benijo) is an exposed beach that picks up much of the Atlantic swell, so it works often through the year. It is usually best with swell from N-NW. The beach faces Northwest.
