Description
Explosivos - Peru
Explosivos is a beach break featuring hollow and fast waves that break both right and left over a sandy bottom. The spot is known for producing short, exhilarating rides, often culminating in perfect barrels before crashing onto the shore. It is best surfed at low and mid tide during rising tide conditions.
Located halfway down the sandy stretch between Punta Rocas and Punta Negra, Explosivos is easily accessible with less than a 5-minute walk from parking. The spot attracts a competitive crowd, particularly body-boarders, when conditions are optimal. While it does not handle large swells, it can be a reliable option when other nearby breaks are flat. Surfers should arrive early to avoid the frequent onshore winds that can disrupt the wave quality.
