Located in Central Baja, Mexico, La Salina is a quality beach break that offers up some barreling walls when the conditions line up. The waves here can be challenging to surf and break for up to 100 meters over a sand bottom. It can be a bit heavy here, bring a strong leash.
What are the best surf conditions for La Salina?
Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard if smaller and a shortboard then step up as the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here usually has something to ride (5/10) and is big enough to keep the crowds spread (4/10). The best winds are from the East. The best swells are from the Northwest, Southwest, or West. Works on all tides.
We recommend wearing a 3/2 in the summer when water temperatures rise to 20 degrees. In the winter a 4/3 is best as water temperatures plunge to 15 degrees. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
