If you see the waves braking after they passed the boulder (el espigon) dont get into the see because the sweel is very smallc and it dosent worth it. dont be afraid of the rocks, if conchitas is braking correctly, you wont feel them.
Atmosphere
it is nice spot with nice restaurants in the beach, dont leave your things in the beach alone because they may get lost.
General
Is very good to learn, and with good sweells and nice conditions is good also to do freesurf.

locals - hey bros... you wanna surf conchitas, easy bro, take your fins and your bdyboard or your surfboard and go for it. My recomendation is to use a 6.3.. when you are on a wave you'll see this dam rocks in front of you.go when all costa verde bffffffffff, and wait for a north swell. there is a very low tide. there are many locals. dont go in to their waves cause they will kick your ass and leave you in underwear.
