Luna Roja surf guide

Luna Roja is a surf spot that breaks over a mix of uneven reef and some sand, located in front of large cliffs that provide a stunning backdrop. This place usually has good consistency, so there’s often something to ride no matter when you show up. The vibe here is pretty chill, making it a decent spot for surfers of various skill levels.

The waves at Luna Roja can be fun, especially when the swell is small, with peaks that are great for beginners. As the swell starts to pick up, the lefts become heavier, making it a bit more challenging. The optimal swell direction is from the east, and it handles swell sizes starting at 1ft (0.3 meters) and upwards. The spot works best at low tide, but you'll find rideable waves at mid and high tides too. Winds from the northwest are generally preferred for cleaner conditions, and you can catch waves breaking both left and right.

This spot is suitable for beginners who are looking to improve their skills without too much intimidation. Keep in mind that while Luna Roja can serve up some nice waves, it’s not always perfection, so be prepared for some mixed conditions. The rock bottom can be tricky at low tide, so it's good to know your limits when heading out.
