Las Gaviotas surf guide

Las Gaviotas is a surf spot located near the Club Las Gaviotas area. It's a right-hand rivermouth break that can be quite fun for intermediate surfers. This spot sees a good amount of activity thanks to its location, which allows it to handle different swell sizes and conditions.

The optimal swell direction for Las Gaviotas is from the northeast, but it can also handle swell coming from the north. The waves can be enjoyable when the swell size is around 2 feet (0.6 meters) and break over both boulders and sand. The preferred wind direction is southeast, which helps to shape the waves nicely. Surfers can take advantage of different tide heights here, as it works well during low, mid, and high tides.

If you're looking for more surf options, there are additional right points in the Finca de los Rivera area. This can be a good chance to explore and find other waves that suit your style and skill level.
