Revolcadero surf guide

Revolcadero is one of those surf spots that might not pop up on every surfer's radar, but it's got its own charm. Located on the beautiful Bahia de Puerto Marquez, it's super easy to get to, thanks to its close proximity to Acapulco. The beach has a fun vibe, with thumping clubs and stunning scenery on the side. While it's definitely not the heavy hitters like Pascuales or Puerto Escondido, Revolcadero is worth checking out if you're in the area.

The surf here can be a bit inconsistent, but when the conditions are right, it can turn into an enjoyable experience. It's an often peaky beachbreak that delivers waves ranging from about 4ft (1.2m) to 12ft (3.6m). The optimal swell direction is from the SouthWest, but it can also handle swells from the South and NorthWest. The waves tend to break both over uneven reef and sand, offering a mix of point breaks, primarily on the right. Best conditions usually come with a NorthEast wind and can be surfed during all tide levels, especially at low, mid, and high tides. This spot is really more suited for experts looking to ride shortboards, funboards, longboards, fishes, or even bodyboards. Stay tuned during the seasons of summer and autumn for the best chances of catching good waves.

Access can be tricky, especially since some parts of the beach are lined with exclusive resorts. That said, the crowd factor isn't too bad most of the time, and the local vibe is quite mellow, making it a decent place to get some waves without too much hassle. Just remember to pay attention and avoid turning your back to the ocean while you’re out there!

Readme

Welcome! If you’re new to surf forecasting, check out this quick guide.

Forecast Cheat Sheet

Short on time? Focus on wave energy. It’s the best single metric to gauge how big and powerful the waves will be.

Click any table cell to jump to that forecast hour. The map will update with forecast arrows, so you can see if wind and swell direction are lining up.

Use the table sidebar to switch units for height and speed.

Log your surf sessions to compare forecasts with real sessions and sharpen future predictions.

On the map, click a metric label to bring that arrow to the front — handy when arrows overlap.

Models and Updates

Surfnerd blends multiple global and local wind and swell models using advanced interpolation and spatial techniques to create an "ensemble" forecast. Forecasts are refreshed hourly.

Surf Predictions

Our AI-driven algorithm scores surf quality, shown by green, orange, and gray dots. Each forecast hour is rated for wind, swell, and tide quality, then combined into an overall score. Here’s the scale:

Perfect
Good
Average
Bad or No Data

Session logs also feed the algorithm — the more you log, the smarter your forecasts get.

With Surfnerd, no more "you should have been here yesterday"

Wind certainty

Wind certainty tells you how much the weather models agree on the forecast.

  • High certainty: Models agree closely; forecast is reliable.
  • Medium certainty: Some disagreement; conditions may shift slightly.
  • Low certainty: Models diverge; treat forecast with caution.

We calculate this by comparing wind speed, gust and direction from multiple models (like GFS, ECMWF, Arome, and Harmonie) and seeing how closely they match. They are weighted, meaning that some models count more than others, depending on how good they are for a certain spot.
