Yacht Club

Mar del Plata, Argentina
🪨Rocks

Yacht Club is Mar del Plata's quality right-hand point, offering protection from the cold S winds that plague the region in winter. The wave breaks along a rocky headland near the famous yacht club, producing longer rides than the nearby beach breaks. Cold water and offshore winds make it challenging but rewarding.
