La Bocaina Surf Guide

La Bocaina in Zona del Centro is a quite exposed point break that has pretty consitent surf. Winter and spring are the optimum times of year to visit. Offshore winds are from the southeast. Waves just as likely from local windswells as from distant groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the north. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Take care of rocks, rips.
