Loma Bonita is located about 25 kilometers south of Zihuatanejo, accessed via a long and bumpy dirt road. It's a mix of beach and reef, known for its powerful waves. This spot features a variety of peaks that can provide a decent session, especially for those looking to challenge themselves in the water.
The surf here works best with western swells, and it can handle sizes from around 2 feet (approximately 0.6 meters) up to bigger days. The waves can break both left and right over uneven reef and sand, making it a bit of a mixed bag when it comes to conditions. The optimal wind comes from the northeast, and it’s good at low, mid, and even high tide. However, it’s worth noting that this spot is best suited for expert surfers, given the power and variability of the waves.
If you're into exploring, make sure to check out Playa La Barrita just 2 kilometers down the road. It has some additional peaks, which can add more variety to your surf day. Remember to keep an eye on the conditions, as they can change quickly here.
