Best Surf Spots in April

April marks the start of the Pacific swell season for Mexico and Central America, while Indonesia fires up as the dry season begins in Bali.

April is when the Pacific really starts to come alive. Mexico's Pacific coast begins seeing the first consistent South swells of the year, Central America is reliable, and Bali transitions into dry season with cleaner conditions and building swell. It's also a shoulder season across most destinations, meaning fewer crowds and better rates. One of the more versatile months for surf travel.
