Hi any tips for good crags on Costa blanca when windy.

Based in fine strat, as Google maps calls it.

Thanks in advance.

Think it was pretty windy on the day we went to Sella but pretty ok down there at the crag, it's kind of in a valley and sheltered...

Another shout for Sella. Pena Roja can be sheltered too.

Without want to state the obvious, see which way the wind is blowing and look for sheltered crags facing away from it in the crag selector in the guidebook?

Yes, that's one plan, but now I have your attention, what would you suggest as we went to sella today and the wind was a bit spooky on the route s less well bolted.

Go on I bet you could suggest one 😘

Well it is supposed to be markedly calmer tomorrow so you can go where ever you fancy. Enjoy,

May be a bit late to the party, but we went to Guadalest on a windy day and it was pretty good as the trees block a lot of the wind. 

Only recommendation is to wear a helmet as theres loose rock in places. Guadalest
