Surf: General: If you happen to be hanging on lovely Cozumel Island after a few days of sustained onshore winds or when a hurricane is spinning offshore, you might just score some waves at Playa Bonita. Located on a modest barb along Cozumel's otherwise straight eastern shore, Bonita can dish up a flurry of warm, almost radioactively blue peaks. Playa Bonita is a quiet spot and a sharp contrast from the party scene in San Miguel (on the other side of the island), or back on the mainland in Cancun. Tides: All tides. Size: Waist to head high Wind: W, NW Swell: E, SE Bottom: Sand. Paddling: Light Spot Rating: Mediocre. Access: Easy. Only one road from San Miguel. Crowds: Crowd Factor: Empty. Local Vibe: Mellow. Environment: Clean Hazards: Turning your back to the ocean. Season: August-November.
