From Tarifa head north for about 25 km on the N340 turn left direction Barbate/Zahara and keep going allong the beach for another 10min. Windsurf The 45min drive to Canos is worth the fuell with (during days) steady very strong Levante in Tarifa.The further north from Tarifa you drive the weaker the Levante. Take care, wind drops extremely once the Levante becomes only a bit less strong in Tarifa. On good days there are waves with 2m and more possible. There is only a small slot to cross the shorebreak. Trying to cross further right might lead to some new material after washing the old one throughly.
Drive from Tarifa past Bolonia and Tahivilla (some houses with mainly a fuel station on your right) and turn then about 2 km after Tahivilla, (25 km from Tarifa) left direction Barbate / Zahara de los Atunes. Drive through Barbate and keep straight on. After about another 5km you will reach Canos.
There are some bars in close vicinity of the beach, but nothing right on the beach.
