About Troncones
Troncones Point is a consistent, left-hand point break situated in the state of Guerrero on the Pacific coast of Mexico. The bathymetric profile comprises an uneven mix of volcanic rock shelves and compacted sand corridors extending from the primary headland. When powerful southerly groundswells track across the Pacific Ocean, they collide with this coastal structure, wrapping cleanly into the bay. An easterly offshore wind blowing from the Sierra Madre del Sur mountains is required to hold up the wave face and maintain the structural integrity of the long, peeling lefts. The wave mechanics offer a manageable take-off that transitions into workable walls, allowing for extensive carving and rhythmic progression. Because the wave breaks over a relatively forgiving mix of rock and sand, it does not typically pitch top-to-bottom unless the swell is massive. It is universally classified as an outstanding canvas for intermediate surfers seeking long-distance rides in warm, tropical waters.

How often is this page updated?
Current conditions refresh every 6 hours when the cron runs. Hourly data updates every 30 minutes. The 7-day forecast, luck factor, and packing notes are all pre-computed at the same time.
What is the luck factor?
We compare the 7-day forecast to the last 5 years of marine data for the same week at Troncones. The delta tells you whether conditions are shaping up better, worse, or about the same as a typical late April.
How is 'best session' picked?
We score each day of the 7-day forecast using the same algorithm as the leaderboard, and highlight the highest scorer.
Where does the data come from?
Open-Meteo's Marine API (swell height, period, water temperature) and Weather API (wind and conditions).
Does the score capture local knowledge?
Honestly, no. Every break has tide windows, swell directions and reef contours that a global model cannot see. Treat the score as a starting point, then check a local cam.
