San Cosme is a long beach known for its consistent and decent-quality waves. It's a go-to spot for surfers looking for a bit of action, especially since it’s surfable at all tides. Although it can get a bit crowded in summer, especially with beachgoers, most of the time you can find yourself enjoying a spot in the lineup. You’ll find that parking is manageable, except during those peak summer days.

The waves at San Cosme are best when the swell comes from the NorthWest, but it also handles swell from the North. You can expect the waves to be around 3ft (about 0.9 meters) high, which makes it suitable for experienced surfers. The beach breaks offer both left and right wave directions, giving you some options to work with. For the best experience, try to hit it when the wind is blowing in from the SouthWest, and you’ll find it works pretty well at low, mid, and high tide.

While it’s generally not overcrowded, summer brings in extra people, so if you prefer a quieter scene, timing your visits is key. The beach offers good facilities and there are a few campsites around if you’re looking to spend some extra time enjoying the waves.
