Questions and answers

Which beach in Mallorca is calm when the wind blows from the south-east (xaloc)?

With xaloc at 40 km/h, the smallest waves are at: Racó de sa Fragata, Racó de ses Barreres, Cala Estellencs, Cala Llombards, Cala Mitjana (Artà).

Where are the waves in Mallorca when the xaloc blows?

The most exposed from that side: platja de Canyamel, Sa Coma beach, Cala Xada, Son Moll beach, Cala Ratjada, Platja de Son Caliu.

How do you work this out?

From how open each beach is to the sea (fetch from the OSM coastline every 5 degrees) and the JONSWAP wind-wave formula; the Beaches today layer on the 3D map uses the same logic.
