K 61 surf guide

K 61 is a surf spot that can be a bit tricky to get to. It’s located quite a distance away from the beach at K59, which means you'll need to paddle a bit to get there. While it might look appealing from afar, don’t be fooled; it can be less consistent and has a reputation for being a shiftier wave. When a solid overhead south swell rolls in, you’ll notice the waves can get a bit hollower and heavier, adding some challenge to your ride.

The spot works best with south swell directions, and it can handle swell sizes around 2ft (about 0.6 meters) to much larger waves. The waves typically break over boulders, which adds another layer of difficulty. Most surfers find that K 61 has right-breaking waves and tends to be more favorable with a north wind. It's a versatile setup; you can surf it during low, mid, or high tide, which makes it accessible at different times throughout the day. However, it suits intermediate surfers best due to its tendencies.

Keep in mind that the paddle out can be a bit of a workout, so it’s smart to plan your session accordingly. The boulders and urchins are something to watch out for, but the distance to paddle isn’t as far as the name suggests. If you're looking for a spot that can offer some fun rights and a bit of adventure, K 61 is worth checking out.
