The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again. Let's talk Tetitlan. This break doesn't fire often, it's inconsistent, so when it does, you gotta be on it. Water temp is 87°, a touch warmer than normal for this time of year – feels good.
The first real standout is Friday the 4th morning. A solid 6ft swell from the SSW with a 17-second period – that's some serious groundswell energy. The combined energy is 2082 (strong). The best part? Dead glassy conditions, calm wind. It's going to be clean, powerful, and for the experienced crew only at this size. The reef at Tetitlan will handle the long period much better than a beach break.
Saturday the 5th morning is another cracker. 6ft SSW swell, 16-second period, and again, glassy conditions with a light NW wind. Combined energy 1598 (strong). This is a perfect window for a long session.
Sunday the 6th morning keeps the run going. 5ft SSW swell, 15-second period, glassy NE wind. Combined energy 1134 (moderate). A bit smaller, but still top-notch and clean. Crowds are possible on the weekend, so get there early.
After that, the swell drops, but we get a few more glassy, clean mornings worth a paddle. Thursday the 10th morning has a 4ft SW swell, 16-second period, glassy. Combined energy 936 (moderate). A nice, quieter option.
The second week gets smaller, with a lot of choppy afternoons, but there's a few bright spots. Monday the 14th morning: 3ft SW swell, but a very long 18-second period. Combined energy 624 (moderate). Small, but clean and lined up for the patient surfer.
The best of the later period is Tuesday the 15th morning: 4ft SW swell, 17-second period, glassy. Combined energy 776 (moderate). A solid dawn patrol.
Your best bet is the first weekend. Friday the 4th and Saturday the 5th mornings are the standout sessions – good size, groundswell, and glassy. The rest of the 16 days is a mix of clean mornings and choppy afternoons, but there are a few more promising glassy windows in the second week if you're keen.
Rusty.

Information about the Tetitlan Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Tetitlan provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Tetitlan can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Tetitlan surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Tetitlan) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Tetitlan may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
Tetitlan is 15 km (9 miles) from the city of Atoyac de Alvarez. If you plan a holiday in Guerrero, look for hotels and other accommodation in Atoyac de Alvarez. Atoyac de Alvarez has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
