Playa Bonita Surf Guide
If you happen to be hanging on lovely Cozumel Island after a few days of sustained onshore winds or when a hurricane is spinning offshore, you might just score some waves at Playa Bonita. Located on a modest barb along Cozumel's otherwise straight eastern shore, Bonita can dish up a flurry of warm, almost radioactively blue peaks. Playa Bonita is a quiet spot and a sharp contrast from the party scene in San Miguel (on the other side of the island), or back on the mainland in Cancun.
