Laga, Sandy beach in Ibarrangelu, Spain.

Laga is a sandy beach in the Basque village of Ibarrangelu, on Spain's northern coast, framed on both sides by steep cliffs. Behind the beach rises the rocky Ogono headland, while the Cantabrian Sea opens up in front.

Laga lies in the Urdaibai reserve beneath the 279-metre limestone cliff of Cape Ogoño. In the late 1990s, measures were taken to protect its dunes: the dunes were fenced off and the car park was limited. In 2024 and 2025, cleanup work on the beach drew protests from residents and the Lagaren Aldeko Herri Plataforma, who said a dune slope had been removed with an excavator.

The beach sits within the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, where visitors can experience local Basque coastal traditions through food and the way the community uses the shoreline daily.

Laga sits within the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve, so some areas around the beach are protected and access may be limited in certain spots. Lifeguards are present during summer, and showers, toilets, and parking are available on site.

Laga draws surfers throughout the year, not just in summer, because the offshore winds and the shape of the bay work together to produce consistent waves. This makes it one of the few spots along the Basque coast where surfing is possible in almost any season.
