More on Playa Matapalo

What are the best surf conditions for Playa Matapalo?

Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard when smaller and a shortboard then a step-up as the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is somewhat consistent (6/10) and will be uncrowded (3/10). The best winds are from the Northeast. The best swells are from the South, Southwest, and West. Works on all tides.

We recommend wearing board shorts or a bikini year-round. Water temperatures range More...
