The water here is beautiful. In Mancora you have everything from the point which has a great left hand peeling wave that is pretty easy to kite on to beach break launch ramps that are more down in the bay. The point starts off as cobble stone rocks that on a low tide can be exposed and will take your fins right off. High tide there is nothing to worry about. The inside of the point is all sand. Past the point you have open beach with a sandy bottom. Sandy beach. The wind season is may to Jan, with the best winds been from October to December. There is never many people on the water so there is loads of space. Very good winds and very consistent. The wind direction is always S to SW and this is side to side on for the bay in Mancora. The actual wind and wave in Mancora itself can be hit or miss, with an average of 3-4 days of wind a week. Its a short drive to find the winds, all you need to do is drive to 20 mins to 1 hour to one of the many other spots further south thar are more exposed to the wind. Mancora is the best place to base your self. Mancora is gifted with amazing weather year around. With the clashing of the warm and cool ocean currents just to the south, a great micro climate has been created. The average air temperature 80°F / 28C all year with cool nights. The ocean water in and around Mancora is trunks 365 days a year. There is the off chance that you will need a spring suit to cut some chill from the wind. Keep in mind that the water just 45 min south is much colder and full suits are mandatory in the winter and spring suit to shorty in the summer. The water temp is very dependent on the currents. Water: Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave, Bigwave. Features: Rooms, Camping, School, Shop, Repair, Rental, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
