Surfing San Jose del Cabo - Best Area Surf Spots

• Zippers - Easily located at about Km. 29 on Mexican 1, this experts-only spot is one of the best around. Waves break right over a rocky reef which makes this spot a little dangerous for newcomers. Crowds regularly gather on the beach to watch the action in the water.
• Roca Loca - Another spot for advanced or expert surfers, waves at Loca Roca typically swell between 3 and 6 feet and break to the right. The sand and rock bottom are pretty forgiving for the most part.
• Acapulquito - This spot offers surf that is good for beginner and more advanced surfers. The wave quality is fairly consistent. The only downside to this spot is the crowds on weekends and during certain weeks of the year.
• Cerritos - Consistent beach break waves crashing over a sandy ocean floor make Cerritos one of the best spots around Cabo, great for beginners and advanced surfers alike. Despite the hour trip from Cabo, this spot has been described as one of the more untouched and natural beaches in the area.
