Playa Azul is a surf spot located in Southern Baja, known for its beautiful sandy beach and varied surf conditions. You can park at any of the restaurants along the beach, making access pretty easy. This spot can be a mixed bag when it comes to surfing, but it's worth checking out, especially between spring and autumn. The local vibe here is mellow, and surfers generally appreciate humility and respect among the community.

When it comes to the surf, Playa Azul can handle swell sizes from about 4 feet (1.2 meters) to 12 feet (3.6 meters). The waves can come from various directions, including Southeast, South, Southwest, and even West. Expect to find both right and left beach breaks. Conditions are generally best when the wind is coming from the North or Northeast, and the ideal tide heights are low to mid, especially during those glassy morning sessions. Keep in mind that the current can be strong, and paddling out might take some effort.

While the spot can get torn apart by onshore winds, it usually offers nice waves early in the day. The crowd factor tends to be mellow, given the spaciousness of the beach, so you won’t feel overcrowded, which is a plus. This spot is suitable for intermediate to expert surfers, so it’s a good idea to be ready for some physical challenges while you’re out there. Whether you're on a shortboard or a fish, there's potential for some decent rides.
