Playa El Morro

Playa El Morro is an S-facing beach break in Acapulco, Guerrero, Mexico. It picks up swell from SE to WNW, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 30% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the N: light winds or N breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while S onshores chop it up.
