Playa Lagarto, Panama, offers consistent surf conditions year-round, with the most favorable window for surfers occurring between May and November. During these months, ground swell dominates (96–99% of the time), with minimal wind swell interference, ensuring clean, well-organized waves. The average swell size remains steady at 1.0–1.1m, suitable for intermediate to advanced surfers. Wind conditions improve significantly in this period, with good wind days (offshore or light cross-shore) peaking from June to September (72–75% frequency), making these months particularly reliable. April stands out as a transition month, offering 100% ground swell but still hampered by higher onshore wind probabilities (63% bad winds). December through March sees consistent ground swell (87–96%), but strong onshore winds (76–83% bad winds) often degrade wave quality. For the best balance of swell consistency, size, and favorable winds, target May through November, with June to September being the absolute peak. Early mornings or late afternoons may help mitigate wind issues outside this window. While smaller, December’s 0.9m swells can still work with less crowd pressure.
