Where it is
La Coma is a thermal, soaring and hike-and-fly site at 317 m in Castellón province, Spain, working on wind from east through south. The takeoff sits in a clearing just below a cave on the hillside, reached on foot in about 45 minutes or by a car route that comes in from behind. Landing, at Camino del campo plantado, stays usable as long as the surrounding trees remain small — worth checking current growth before relying on it, and there's a map marking the safe area. The Sierra de les Santes has its own microclimate, so local pilots recommend checking a nearby weather station's readings rather than a generic regional forecast. The site sits close to controlled airspace — an aerodrome RMZ and the Castellón CTR — so confirming current restrictions before flying matters. As with any small local site, the standing local etiquette is to leave the takeoff a little cleaner than you found it.
Launch & conditions
Takeoff is a clearing just below a cave on the hillside, working east through south wind.
Getting there & local rules
Reach the site on foot, about 45 minutes, or by a car route that comes in from behind. Landing, at Camino del campo plantado, stays usable only while the surrounding trees are small — check current growth and the marked map area.
Local rules & hazards
The site sits close to controlled airspace — an aerodrome RMZ and the Castellón CTR — so confirm current restrictions before flying. The Sierra de les Santes has its own microclimate; checking a nearby weather station's live readings is more reliable than a generic forecast. Leave the takeoff a little cleaner than you found it.
Check conditions before you fly
A forecast for the valley is not a forecast for the launch. Before heading to La Coma, read the wind and thermals for the site itself, confirm the day's rules with the local club, and remember the standing rule — when in doubt, don't launch. In the free OutDare app you can open La Coma with a 7-day forecast built from high-resolution weather models, see who else has been flying, and get there with offline maps.

A day counts as flyable when the surface wind held in your range, from a direction the site flies, with no rain, for at least 2 hours in a row (08:00–20:00) — from hourly 10 m wind over the last 12 months. A seasonal wind guide only: it can't judge gusts, thermals or turbulence, and never replaces the live forecast, airspace checks and your own judgement.
