What?? - The only honest answer is "maybe." Waves are never guaranteed. In Europe, Autumn, Winter and Spring is more consistent than Summer, but it can go flat any time of year and be epic any time of year. The waves won't respect your holiday arrangements. Unless you leave your board behind, then it will definitely be classic!!
