Punta Suspiro surf guide

Punta Suspiro is located a few clicks south of Mompiche and is often seen as an underrated surf spot. It's a nice escape from the crowds, giving you the chance to enjoy a more laid-back surf session. The waves here are less busy, making it a good option when Mompiche gets too crowded for your liking. This place offers surfers a unique atmosphere, even though some of the surroundings aren’t as natural anymore due to large resorts nearby.

The surf at Punta Suspiro is pretty interesting. It mainly works on a north-west swell and can handle swell sizes up to about 4 ft (1.2 m). You'll find left point breaks here, which can offer some decent rides if conditions are right. The best wave action comes from a few different swell directions, including south-west and north. For the best experience, aim for low to mid-tide. The preferred wind direction is from the south-east. This spot is suited for intermediate surfers who are looking to catch some fun waves, but it may not be the best choice for beginners.

Besides the surfing, it's good to note that the environment has changed quite a bit. The huge Royal Decameron all-inclusive resort nearby can take away some of the natural vibe you might expect from a surf getaway. If you're looking for a chill spot to unwind and ride some decent waves away from the bustling scene, Punta Suspiro is worth checking out.
