This spot, nicknamed Jeffrey�s by the locals, is a quality right-hander on the inside of the Bilbao estuary, opposite the Old Port ( Puerto Viejo in Spanish) of Algorta. It needs big swells to begin breaking and it does so only a few times during the year, but when conditions are good, it produces long waves surfable up to 9 ft in height. Access is complicated as this has to be done across rocky terrain or paddling over a long distance.

Wave type: Point Break/Right-hander.
Tide: Mid-low.
Wind: All south/southeast winds. Protected from the northwest wind.
Swell: North. 12 ft or more.
Level: Expert.
Facilities: There are no showers or installations. Nearby restaurants. Ample parking and difficult access. Metro 1km away.
