Punta Conejo - surf spot statistics

Punta Conejo, Mexico, is a consistent year-round surf spot with reliable ground swell dominance, making it a solid choice for surfers who prefer clean, powerful waves. The best months for optimal conditions are generally from March to September, when ground swell frequency is at its highest (87–98%) and swell size remains steady around 1.1–1.3m. March stands out with 87% ground swell and slightly improved wind conditions (21% good winds), though onshore winds are still prevalent. April through September maintains excellent swell consistency, with ground swell peaking at 96–98% and the highest likelihood of favorable winds (24–30% good wind days). Wave size increases slightly in October (1.3m), but wind conditions deteriorate, and by late fall and winter (November–December), ground swell frequency drops (62–72%), and bad wind days become more common (87–88%). Summer months (May–June) offer the best balance between swell consistency (95–98% ground swell) and relatively better wind chances (29–30% good winds), despite the majority of days still having less ideal winds. Overall, advanced surfers will find the most reliable conditions from late winter through early fall, with spring and early summer providing the best combination of swell quality and manageable winds.

January at Punta Conejo delivers consistent surf with an average swell height of 1.1m and a solid period of 10.6s, producing well-organized waves ideal for intermediate to advanced surfers. The dominant swell directions are SSW (31.5% in the 0.5-1m range, 13.62% in 1-1.5m) and NNW (12.87% in 1-1.5m, 9.23% in 1.5-2m), with occasional larger sets exceeding 2.5m (2.12% from NNW). Northerly swells (N, NNE) contribute some power but are less frequent. Wind conditions are challenging, with only 13% favorable for surfing—mostly light SSE to SW breezes under 20kph. However, strong northerly winds (N, NNW) above 20kph are common, creating choppy onshore conditions. The best sessions occur when SSW swells coincide with lighter winds, offering clean, punchy waves. Expect a mix of playful mid-size days and occasional powerful overhead conditions when NNW energy wraps in. Wind management is key, as northerlies dominate.
