Playa Serena surf guide

Playa Serena is a surf spot located near the condo towers, offering a righthand pointbreak that can be quite fun for surfers. It's not the most popular beach in the area, but it has its moments. The vibe here is relaxed, and while the surf isn't always perfect, it attracts a good number of surfers looking for something decent.

The waves at Playa Serena really come to life with a south or southwest swell. It handles swell sizes around 3 ft. (about 0.9 meters), breaking over boulders and sand. When conditions are right, you'll find a hard and hollow take-off right in front of the condos, leading into a long wall great for longboarding. The best surf happens at low to mid tide, and a northwesterly wind helps clean things up. It's worth noting that this spot is best suited for intermediate surfers, as the waves can be a bit tricky when things get crowded.

Parking is available outside the condos, and there's a path leading to the point which makes it easy to get to the surf. Just be sure to keep your car tidy—nothing should be left inside. As the sand at Playa Serena can shift, the quality of the waves can be a bit unpredictable, which often leads to crowding when the surf is on.
