Bigger swells light up Punta Palmar's fast powerful righthanders at high tide. The misleadingly named peaks of Hawaiisito (Little Hawaii) favour lefts, are readily accessible, but will not handle swell above head-high. There's also a popular beachbreak between both points, which serves as a contest site, despite most waves tendency to closeout.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
