Playa El Mojon - surf spot statistics

Playa El Mojón in Mexico offers consistent surfable conditions year-round with a strong dominance of ground swell, making it a reliable spot for experienced surfers. The best months for optimal surfing conditions are from April to September, when the swell is most consistent and the average swell size peaks at 1.5m. During this period, ground swell accounts for 95-99% of the swell, ensuring clean, powerful waves with minimal wind interference. Wind conditions, though not perfect, are relatively better in these months, with good wind days occurring around 41-45% of the time. March and October also provide solid conditions, with slightly smaller swells (1.2-1.4m) but still high ground swell prevalence. The winter months (November-February) see smaller swells (1.1-1.3m) and worse wind conditions, with only 35-40% good wind days, making them less ideal compared to the mid-year peak. July and August are particularly noteworthy due to the largest swell size and sustained ground swell dominance. Overall, Playa El Mojón is a year-round destination, but the best balance of wave quality and wind conditions is found from spring through early fall.

March at Playa El Mojón offers solid surf conditions with a consistent mix of swell and wind patterns. The average swell height is 1.2m with a strong 14.3s period, providing well-spaced, powerful waves ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers. The primary swell direction is from the SSW, contributing 42.57% of waves in the 1-1.5m range and 14.59% in the 0.5-1m range, ensuring rideable conditions most days. Larger swells (1.5-2.5m) also appear frequently enough (around 10% combined) for those seeking more challenging waves. Wind conditions are favorable 43% of the time, with the best chances coming from lighter SSE to SW breezes (0-20kph). However, stronger NNE to NE winds (20-40kph) can occasionally create choppy conditions, especially in the first half of the month. The spot handles various swell sizes well, but the real advantage is the long-period energy that keeps the waves clean and powerful, particularly on mid to high tides. Expect a good balance of smaller, playful days and occasional overhead sessions, with the best windows occurring when winds stay below 15kph from the southern quadrants.
