Pacasmayo

Pacasmayo is Chicama's slightly shorter but equally sublime cousin—a left point break that can offer rides of over a kilometer when the conditions conspire. Located just south of the world's longest wave, Pacasmayo provides an alternative when Chicama is too crowded or not quite connecting. The wave peels along a sandy point with remarkable consistency, offering endless walls for carving and the occasional hollow section. The pier provides both a landmark and wind shelter. For those chasing the Peruvian point break dream, Pacasmayo delivers the same infinite sensation with a fraction of the fanfare.
