More about Surfers Beach (Puerto Rico) surfspot

Surfers Beach is a consistent, accessible reef peak on the Ramey Air Force Base and ranges from fun shoulders to punchy barrels, depending on the swell direction. NE will favour and lengthen the rights, which draw the most attention.

General: Surfer's has a long right and a short, punchy left; the right is shifty, steep, down-the-line, and has a few different sections, making it ideal for scattering the ever-present crowd. NW swells make it more of an A-frame situation while N and NE swells create more of a right pointbreak effect. Tides: Not the biggest tidal changes but lower generally better. Size: Head high-double overhead Wind: East or Southeast Swell: NW, N Bottom: Reef Paddling: Depends on the size but when it gets bigger it can definitely be a workout. Spot Rating: Several different peaks offer a big playing field which helps with the crowd.

Depends on surf size -- decent for beginners when smaller but definitely advance when bombing.

Drive down the hill and park in the dirt parking lot.

Late summer and fall for tropical cyclone swells but late fall through early spring for consistency.

Crowd Factor: Can get crowded but typically it is rather spread out. Local Vibe: Not too bad as it's spread out.

The rips, urchins, crowds with attitude and pollution are an issue.

Pretty good.

Make sure you known how to get back in.
