Attention: open in a new window. PDFPrint

October in Puerto Escondido is normally quieter and not so hot with much of the rain all but finished until next May. TheĀ mornings temperatures can feel a bit fresh but within a few hours the hot day has arrived. Daylight savings (summer time) ends in October meaning the sun will start to appear over the hills around 6am giving people more early daylight to do things like stroll along the beach at sunrise.

The month of November is special in Puerto Escondido and during October people are preparing for the festivities in the following month when more visitors will be in town. The surfers in town at this time often enjoy good swells with a much smaller crowd than say mid-year. The water is still not cold but the good off-shore morning winds might make some surfers feel warm in the water than on the land.

Many visitors to Puerto Escondido will have a lovely time watching from the action of these surfers riding the waves at Zicatlea, La Punta, Marinero or Carrizalillo bay. At any of these locations at varying times of the day people will see a wide variety of surfers enjoying the waves of the ocean.
