📖 Surf Guide

The Punta Mita area is littered with fun waves, and most of them are righthand pointbreaks. La Lancha, as well as all the other breaks in the Punta Mita area, are actually more dependable wintertime spots, despite the fact that they face southwest. This is because Cabo Corrientes blocks all significant S swell and most SSW swell, though very westerly SW swells get good, while Punta Mita is just small enough to wrap in moderate to large winter NW swells. In a land of summertime lefthanders, Punta Mita is a welcomed anomaly for traveling surfers. So expect crowds, and lots and lots of longboarders, as La Lancha and most other nearby breaks are consistently mellow, although really quite perfect and fun on the best swells.
