The best season to surf in Arpoador is during winter time, but you will face no problems surfing at any other season, since it constitutes a beach of consistent reliability. The most preferable wind direction is north and northeast, but you’ d better choose a southeast swell direction- it is more probable that you’ ll come across with groundswells rather than wind-swells.

The average sea temperature is 23°C (73.4°F), usually with no big variations, but the wind strength does vary, therefore you should check out the weather forecast before you decide to live your experience, riding the waves. Finally, you should note that there is a low and high tide as well as that you will mostly have to handle left hand waves.
