READING THE SEA…
Is it worth a session at Montañita?
At 1 m it's fun — fun, rideable waves for most surfers. The swell period is on the shorter side, so expect choppier, weaker surf than the height alone might imply. This is the open-sea figure — the wave that actually breaks at a given peak depends on the spot's shape and the state of the tide, so treat it as a steer, not a promise. The water is 27.5°C — balmy.
