Local Knowledge & Surf Guide
Local Knowledge
Cahuita is an exposed beach break in Limon that is usually a reliable spot, offering both left and right-hand waves. The most favorable conditions are a northeast windswell with offshore winds from the southwest. The break provides good surf at all stages of the tide. The spot is a fairly popular wave that can sometimes get crowded, and surfers should be aware of strong rips. The best time for consistent, clean waves is typically in February.
