More about Guajataca surfspot

General: A super-wide, semi-protected beachbreak -- both rarities along this stretch of coast - this is a flat, packed sand beach, so it has an annoying tendency to close out a bit more often than you'd like. When the waves get really big from the NW, there is a giant left that breaks in front of the tunnel and spins into the beach. Serious stuff, but very rare. Tides: Not the biggest tidal changes but lower generally better. Size: Chest high-overhead Wind: South Swell: NNW, N, NNE, NE Bottom: Sand Paddling: Depends on the size of the surf. Spot Rating: Not great as it tends to close out on most swells but it is somewhat protected from the trade winds.

Beginner to slumming advanced, psycho for the bombie.

Park right there.

Late summer and fall for tropical cyclone swells but late fall through early spring for consistency.

Crowd Factor: Pretty spread out. Local Vibe: Not too bad.

Not bad.

Not much.
