Located in Los Cabos, Mexico, Punta Palmilla is a fun right-hand point break that offers up some powerful walls when a big enough swell comes through. The waves here require skill to surf and break for up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a rock bottom.
What are the best surf conditions for Punta Palmilla?
Gets good between chest high and double overhead. We recommend riding a shortboard and then a step up as the size picks up. This break is good for intermediate and advanced-level surfers. The surf here is not the most consistent (4/10) and will generally be uncrowded (3/10). The best winds are from the West. The best swells are from the South and Southwest. Works on all tides.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini year-round. The water temperatures range from 29°C to 21°C (84°F to 70°F). See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
