Locals say Cancun only breaks like this 10 days each year. Definitely a difficult place to time a strike mission! You can’t beat the ultra blue-turquoise water.

June to November (Hurricane season) are the best months for surf in Cancun, however most days are waist high or smaller.
Best surf spots in Cancun:
- Playa Ballenas
- Playa Delfines
- Playa Chac Mool
- Playa Marlin
