What is the surf like during the summer/fall and winter/spring months?
Summer/Fall months: Long period swells come in from a broad south west to south direction form 220-180 degrees and lasts 3-4 days in duration, with 1-2 days of peak intensity. During this season, you can expect somewhat more consistent surf that in the winter months with not quite as much fluctuation and unpredictability in swell height. Winter/Spring months: Swell conditions are prime. Best surf found around Punta de Mita, Playa a la Lancha, and El Faro, where west and north west swells wrap in and create lined up perfection. Waves can be anywhere from 2-10 ft. See our Surf Report for the latest info.
