HOw to ge there:.
To get to Playa Mizata it is highly recommended with your own or private transportation, since access by public transportation can be a little difficult and time consuming, as it is one of the places furthest from the airport and the capital city, getting there can take you take around two hours and public transportation does not make direct or constant trips. Although you can take buses from La Libertad and Sonsonate between two to three times a day. But without a doubt we recommend booking private transportation to access the place.
About the surf
Surfing can be said to be very constant, you find waves practically all year round. The place has several peaks, the most popular is the Rocky pointbreak, a right wave that changes its quality depending on the tides, at high tide it can collide with the shore making it a little more difficult to enjoy, at low tide the The lines are a little cleaner but you have to be careful with the stones.
Then there is the beachbreak section, which depending on the direction of the wind and swell can have regular quality, fast left and right peaks, recommended for bodyboarding.
Then at the end of the sandy beach depending on the tides you could find another left section, but a bit inconsistent.
Unfortunately when talking about surfing, it is difficult to find the perfect place. The waves on this beach could be considered of much lower quality than other spots such as Punta Roca, Sunzal, El Zonte or K59, in addition to the fact that it is quite isolated, you should take into account that if you are looking for the best surf experience you will have to drive a lot by car to surf the best waves in the country. But you can guarantee a very quiet place with fewer people in the water, recomended when the surf is very small at the other spots and also if you travel with your couple looking for more privacy and beautiful landscape.
