La Ticla surf guide

La Ticla is a popular surf spot located on the Pacific coast of Mexico, easily visible from the Mex 200. This spot is known for its reliable waves and stunning scenery. It draws both locals and visitors, especially those looking for a good surf session. The mouth of the Ostula River contributes to the surf conditions here, making it a go-to place for surfers from spring to fall.

The surf at La Ticla can be really fun. It works best with S and SW swells, producing an A-frame wave that breaks over sand and boulders. The wave can get pretty consistent, and during its prime, it offers long walls and feathering barrels. Swell sizes can range from about 1.2 meters (4 ft) to 3.6 meters (12 ft), making it suitable for intermediate surfers. It's a great mix as you can score solid lefts and decent rights, particularly with W-NW swells. The wind typically comes from the NE, which helps the waves shape up nicely. All tide levels can work here, but low to mid is generally preferred.

While there are some hazards such as rocks and urchins, this spot has a vibrant vibe, especially when the crowds come in at peak seasons, which are from March to November. If itโ€™s too crowded at the main peak, itโ€™s a good idea to walk a bit north or south for some space. Also, be careful after heavy rains as the conditions in the water can change quickly. La Ticla is a solid choice for both shortboarders and longboarders, and those on fish or bodyboards will also find it enjoyable.
