La Santa Derecha surf guide

La Santa Derecha is a popular surf spot located on the southern side of La Isleta. It's known for its long right-hand point break that can offer a decent ride for surfers looking to catch some waves. The vibe here tends to be crowded, especially during peak times, but the wave's length helps disperse the mix of tourists and locals. It's always a good idea to take your time when exiting and entering, as there are some very shallow spots, especially on smaller days.

This wave works best with a north swell and can handle sizes up to about 1.2 meters (4 feet). The ideal conditions come when winds are from the southeast, and it can really fire with the right setup. The breaks over an uneven reef can produce hollow sections on good days, but a west swell often results in the wave sectioning off. You'll find that the best tides for surfing here are low, mid, or high, making it a versatile spot for surfers with intermediate skills.

Keep in mind that La Santa Derecha is a bit inconsistent, and when the conditions aren't right, it may not be worth the trip. However, on good days, the wave can provide some nice open faces, giving you a chance to enjoy your session. Just watch out for those sneaky sets that can catch you off guard!
