About Punta Conejo
Facing, offshore wind, exposure, level and swell range are estimated.
The spot faces SW (221°), so it takes swell from the SW. The wind blows offshore from the NE (41°). It is exposed to the open swell. It suits intermediate surfers and up. It works in 2–8 ft of swell. The sea floor shelves moderately: 10 m deep about 350 m out (1 in 37). On a typical 5 ft, 11 s swell the waves here would crumble. The sea is about 17°C in May, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 27°C in September, its warmest (no wetsuit). For intermediate surfers the best months are usually January, November and December, with about 4 good days in 7; in May, about 0. From the weather of past years. No town nearby. Nearest beds: La Paz, 71 km. Nearest airport: Manuel Márquez de León International Airport (LAP), 65 km.
Water about 26°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
