Cabo Colonet surf guide

Cabo Colonet is a surf spot located on the Baja California coast, known for its long stretches of rights that wrap around the cliffs. It's a place where surfers can find some decent waves but should be prepared for inconsistency. The area is also facing some challenges as there's a project planned to build the third-largest port in the world, which could impact the surfing vibe here.

This spot really comes alive with a solid swell coming from the south or west. It can handle swell sizes of around 6 feet (about 1.8 meters), making it suitable for intermediate surfers looking for some action. The waves break over an uneven reef, creating point breaks that mostly serve up right-handers. The best wind direction is from the north, and you can catch good waves during low, mid, or high tide, giving you a bit of flexibility on when to paddle out.

Cabo Colonet isn't always buzzing with surfers, which can be a bonus if you prefer a less crowded experience. Just keep in mind that it might take some patience to find the right conditions, as the spot tends to be a bit inconsistent. Still, for those willing to work for it, there’s potential for some fun sessions.
