A Finest Visitors Guidebook In Finding A Cool Journey At Mexico

Riding the Waves at Puerto Escondido

Puerto Escondido or the Mexican Pipeline is popularly considered as one of the top ten surfing areas in the world. It hosts the Mexpipe Challenge in February and an international surf contest in November. All types of surfers will get the best wave choices. There are several beaches in Puerto Escondido but the Playa Zicatela is not ideal for swimming as it is the main surfing beach with strong rip tides that will pull you in as well as some of the best and strongest waves in the world which topples even the popular Hawaii Banzai Pipeline. This surfing spot is limited to very experienced surfers only as even the most professional surfers have met accidents that have placed them in wheelchairs for life. The Point is another popular surfing area with a rapid and tough surf ride. At the other end of the beach break is the Far Bar that has the most surfers since the water is deeper here compared to the other surfing spots and the break is quite far from the shore. Puerto Escondido is truly a surfers paradise and is best recommended for surfing lovers coming on their Mexico vacations.
