Playa Guiones

Best Surf Season (April - August)

When the Pacific storm track south of the equator fires up, Playa Guiones transforms into one of Central America's most consistent surf spots. The dominant swell energy locks into a tight SSW/SW corridor-during April and May a staggering 80-95% of all waves arrive from SSW/SW-and average periods climb to 13-14s. That means almost every set carries real power and lines wrap cleanly onto the west-southwest-facing sand. Early-morning offshore E/NE flow and lighter variable winds, especially in July with 68% ideal conditions, keep the beachbreak rippable between passing green-season showers. This is the window for solid 4-6ft (1.2-1.8m) surf, with plenty of 5-8ft (1.5-2.4m) stand-out days on the horizon.
