Where it is
Razo is a coastal soaring site in Galicia, northwest Spain, launching from just 30 m and working north, northeast and northwest wind right off the coastal ridge above Razo beach. It's a straightforward, low-altitude site rather than a mountain launch — the kind of place suited to short soaring sessions along the dune and cliff line rather than long cross-country days. Access is easy from either of Galicia's main cities: about 40 km from A Coruña via the AG-55 to Carballo and on toward Razo beach, or roughly 55 km from Santiago de Compostela via the AC-1914 toward Carballo and then Razo beach. Landing is flexible — pilots can either top-land back at the takeoff itself or come down directly on the beach below, which keeps things simple on days when the wind holds steady along the coast.
Launch & conditions

Getting there & local rules
About 40 km from A Coruña via the AG-55 toward Carballo and Razo beach, or roughly 55 km from Santiago via the AC-1914 toward Carballo and Razo beach.
Check conditions before you fly
A forecast for the valley is not a forecast for the launch. Before heading to Razo, 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 Razo 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.
