Sipacate is a surf spot located in Guatemala, known for its laid-back vibe and beautiful sandy beaches. It's a pretty consistent place where surfers can find some decent peaks, especially when the right swell hits. With miles of beach, there’s plenty of room to spread out, making it a good option for those looking to catch waves without too much hassle. The locals tend to be friendly, and there are options for staying nearby, making it convenient for visiting surfers.

The surf at Sipacate is best during head-high swells, especially from the SouthWest. On days with a good swell, you can expect some fun beach breaks, with waves breaking both left and right over sand. It handles swell sizes starting from about 2 feet (0.6 meters) and can work well with low, mid, and high tide, so there’s flexibility in when to get out there. Morning offshore winds from the NorthEast are ideal, helping to create nice, clean conditions for surfing. This spot is also suitable for beginners, so if you’re just starting out, you’ll find some manageable waves to practice on.

While Sipacate can get crowded due to its popularity, the beach's length allows for some space, meaning you can often find your own patch of water to surf. It's a good idea to check the tide and wind conditions before heading out for the best experience. Enjoy the waves and the local vibe!
