Surf Puemape

Puemape - North Coast of Peru Puemape is a left point break characterized by hollow, fast, and powerful waves over a sandy bottom mixed with rocks. This spot is known for its consistency, especially at low and mid tides, making it a prime location for surfers seeking quality waves. Access is challenging, requiring a 5 km drive on a dirt road from the Pan American Highway, followed by a short walk. Nestled between the renowned surf spots of Pacasmayo and Chicama, Puemape offers an eerie atmosphere with its dilapidated fishing village and minimal human presence. The waves are best surfed during winter south swells, as summer conditions can shift the sand. Surfers should be cautious of strong rips and undertows, particularly during rising tides. With few surfers on weekdays and weekends, Puemape provides a unique and isolated surfing experience, perfect for those looking to escape the crowds.
