SURFING AT THE MEXICAN RIVIERA AND COSTA RICA.


 

 

 

Experience surfing the Mexican Riviera at Sayulita and Punta Mita. With multiple facing beaches and breaks, a great combination of swells, nine-surf breaks, no crowds, no wet suits, this spot is ideal for its high quality point surf and high quality reef breaks. Great for the experienced surfer or for learning.
