San Blas surf guide

San Blas is located about 80 miles north of Vallarta, where the coastline shifts to catch some nice swell during the spring and summer months. This area is known for its various surf spots, with Stoner's Point being a well-known gem just south of the town. It's a mellow, cobblestone righthand pointbreak that many surfers enjoy. Besides Stoner's Point, there’s also Santa Cruz on the opposite side of the bay, which offers a lefthand point. In general, if you’re around San Blas, you’ll find yourself surrounded by a lot of beachbreak options.

The surf here can range from waist high to double overhead (about 1 to 2.5 meters). San Blas is great for catching waves from different swell directions including South, SouthWest, and WestSouthWest, and it handles swell sizes typically between 3ft to 8ft (approximately 1 to 2.5 meters). The waves break over sand, providing both lefts and rights. You can surf at all tides, but low to mid and mid to high tides work best for various spots. With manageable paddling, it caters to all skill levels from beginner to expert, making it accessible for most surfers. The preferred wind directions here are North, NorthNorthEast, and East, which can really make your session enjoyable.

Access to the beach breaks is pretty easy, and while the crowd can get a bit busy at the main spots, the overall vibe is laid-back and friendly. You can expect a clean environment most of the time, but after heavy rains, it may not be as fresh. Generally, the surf season runs from March to October, so plan your trip accordingly. Most surfers bring shortboards, fishes, funboards, or longboards, depending on their style and the conditions.

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.
