About This Break
Punta Guetaguichi is a remote, exposed point break on Oaxaca’s eastern Pacific coast, in the same broad Salina Cruz/Tehuantepec surf region as Punta Chipehua and Punta Conejo. Its open-ocean exposure makes it a reliable receiver of Southern Hemisphere groundswell, with SSW swell and northerly offshore wind producing the classic setup.
The attraction here is classic eastern Oaxaca: warm water, strong southern groundswell, powerful offshore winds and very little crowd pressure compared with Puerto Escondido. July is particularly favorable.
