Punta Sayulita is a popular surf spot located on the western coast of Mexico, known for its laid-back vibe and accessible waves. The beach faces slightly north of west, while the headland, Punta Sayulita, helps to catch the surf coming in from the west and northwest. It’s a fun place for surfers of various skill levels, especially those looking to enjoy mellow conditions.
The waves here can vary in size from about waist high (0.9m) to just overhead (2.4m). The lefts breaking off the north end of the beach provide clean, sectiony lines that are great for longboarders and sometimes decent for shortboarders when a solid north-west or west swell rolls in. The righthander in the middle of town is what attracts most surfers, offering a mix of sand and rock that delivers a reliable longboard wave, which can get high performance under the right swell conditions. You can surf here year-round, with the best seasons being spring, summer, and autumn. The spot handles swell sizes from 3ft to 8ft and works well with east winds and all tide heights.
Access is easy, with plenty of parking available. The crowd can get busy at the main surf spots, but the local vibe remains pretty mellow. Just be aware of some rocks on the inside and occasional sea urchins. Punta Sayulita offers a fun atmosphere for both beginners and more experienced surfers looking to enjoy a good day on the water.
