El Comedor is a surf spot known for its laid-back vibe and picturesque scenery. It’s situated along a boulder reef, which gives it a unique character. While it might not be the most famous surf destination, it can be a fun place to catch some waves, especially if you time it right with the conditions.

This spot works best with north swells, but it also handles waves from the west and east. It’s ideal for smaller swells, generally around 3ft (about 0.9m). When it does break, surfers can enjoy lefts and rights over the boulders, although be prepared for some crumbly sections. Low to mid tide is the sweet spot here, and it’s suitable for beginners looking to get some experience in a less crowded environment.

If you decide to paddle out, just be aware of the urchins hiding among the boulders. They can be a nuisance, so it’s best to be cautious. The spot lays out in a beautiful landscape, making for a pleasant surf experience when conditions line up.
