More on Playa Carmen

Located in Golfo de Nicoya, Costa Rica, Playa Carmen is a fun beach break that offers up rippable walls. The waves here can be challenging to surf and break for up to 100 meters over rock and sand bottom. There are some surf contests held here throughout the year. Consistent and well-shaped.

What are the best surf conditions for Playa Carmen?

Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard if small then a shortboard then step up as the size increases. This break is suitable for intermediate and advanced-level surfers. The surf here is consistent (7/10) and will usually have a crew on it (6/10). The best winds are from the Northeast. The best swells are from the Northwest, South, Southwest, and West. Works on a low to mid-tide best.
