Check out the point break at “Punta (point) Camaron” next to Valentino’s disco castle between Playa Sabalos and Playa Marlin. The surf can get fairly large here; it’s not uncommon for there to be a 4-6 foot swell here with a left or right point break depending on where the swell is coming from.

If you want to get away from the city, the surf can get quite large here as there are no off-shore islands as there are near Mazatlan central.
