Puerto Escondido in June

Low season

Better than the words "rainy season" suggest: mornings usually shine, storms hit late-day, surf pumps, prices drop.

Weather

The rainy-season pattern sets in — hot sunny mornings, building clouds, an afternoon or evening downpour, then clearing. All-day washouts are the exception, not the rule.

Sea & surf

Consistent, serious swell at Zicatela; the wave’s international season. Coves swimmable between weather.

What's on

Hurricane season formally opens (June–October): direct hits here are rare, but build one flexible day into summer plans. Turtle nesting activity builds on the outer beaches; lagoon and greenery at their lushest.
