Casa Verde
Casa Verde is a coral reef break in the Los Roques archipelago that comes alive when bigger north swells push through. While other spots in the chain break on moderate swell, Casa Verde needs solid size to show its best—but when it does, the crystal-clear turquoise water and remote atoll setting make it unforgettable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of wave is Casa Verde?
Casa Verde is a reef break in Los Roques, Venezuela, with peaks that run both left and right.
What swell works best at Casa Verde?
Casa Verde picks up swell from the NNW round to the NE, and it's best when it's coming straight out of the N. It starts working at around 1.8m and handles up to about 3m, with the sweet spot around 2.3 to 2.7m. Period matters too: aim for 14s or longer, as anything under 10s tends to be weak. These are the numbers our scoring uses, so treat them as a guide rather than a promise.
What wind is offshore at Casa Verde?
A SW wind is dead offshore at Casa Verde, and anything from the S round to the W keeps it clean. The morning is typically the best window, roughly 5am to 9am. Light winds from other directions can still be fine; strong offshores can make it hard to get into waves.

Casa Verde is at its best around the mid to high tide, roughly 0.5m to 1.8m on the local chart.
