A glass windbreak (paraviento de cristal in Spanish) is a freestanding or post-mounted glass screen made from toughened safety glass. Unlike solid walls or polycarbonate screens, glass windbreaks are completely transparent — they deflect the wind while leaving views of the garden, sea, or pool entirely unobstructed.
Glass windbreaks are particularly popular on coastal terraces along the Costa del Sol, where the Levante wind from the east and the Poniente from the west can make outdoor dining and sunbathing uncomfortable even on warm days. A well-positioned glass screen can reduce wind speed by 80–90% in the protected zone without creating shade or altering the appearance of the space.
Completely Transparent
Toughened glass preserves full panoramic views — sea, garden, and pool remain visible with no visual interruption.
Fixed or Retractable
Fixed post-mounted panels for permanent protection; telescoping or folding screens that retract when not needed.
Safety Glass EN 12150
10 mm or 12 mm toughened glass; tempered or laminated options for maximum safety in public and pool areas.
Minimal Footprint
Post diameters as small as 50 mm; glass clamped with stainless steel or brass fittings for a clean, modern look.
Why Mijas Costa Residents Choose Costa Glass
Mijas Costa stretches along the coast between Fuengirola and Marbella, encompassing popular residential urbanisations like La Cala de Mijas, Calahonda, and El Chaparral. The area is particularly popular with British and Scandinavian expats seeking a quieter lifestyle than Marbella.
The local climate — characterised by a warm and relatively sheltered microclimate protected by the Sierra de Mijas hills inland — makes quality terrace products an investment rather than a luxury. A well-installed glass windbreak system extends your outdoor season from the traditional summer months to a full twelve months of usable, comfortable outdoor space.
As direct manufacturers based in Estepona — just a short drive from Mijas Costa — Costa Glass eliminates the middleman and passes those cost savings directly to you. Every system is measured on-site, fabricated at our factory, and installed by our own technical team. There are no subcontractors and no split responsibilities.
