Sayulita does have a nice, although small, break, a right and a left. It is more of a long board wave, but the local kids rip it up on short boards even on a blown out day. Trips can be arranged with a taxi to several spots to the north and south. I can tell you about the ones that are no longer secret spots. To the south some spots are Burros, La Launcha, El Faro, and Restaurants.

To the north are San Pancho, Chacala, Santa Cruz, and San Blas. The best way to surf most of these spots is to hire a boat. There are a few boat captains who make surf charters. If you are learning to surf, then the waves of Sayulita are perfect; not too big, fast, or heavy. You can rent surfboards and boogie boards at Santa Crucecita, Captain Pablo's, or  Papa’s Palapas.

They also offer surf lessons. If you are a beginner, get a long board and try to go out where there are less people. Also, three times a winter, Sayulita hosts a two-day-long surfing competitions.
