Costa Sol

Costa Sol is an exposed beach and point break in West Guerrero that tends to work intermittently rather than daily. When conditions align, it can provide surf that suits intermediate riders, and it may show better performance when south swell fills the area. Wind is mainly driven by thermal sea-breezes, with offshore-favorable morning winds often helping clean up wave faces. As the day progresses, winds typically shift toward a more noticeable onshore sea-breeze by mid-afternoon, so early sessions are often the best bet for ride quality. The break is fully exposed, and safety considerations are important: rip currents are common, and the area can be isolated. There can also be submerged rocks near the point and shifting sandbars, which increases the need for caution when paddling and positioning. Water conditions are generally warm and clean, with seasonality favoring surfing in the summer period. Even when the surf is on, the spot’s reputation is low-profile, so rider numbers can be small—while the water can still get busy when it does work.
