Surf: Close to Tacna, Boca del Rio is a small "recreation town", offering some nightlife and a collection of beaches with well-formed peaks. There is a large choice of waves, from beach to reefbreaks, but don’t expect more than mostly short rides. From here starts a long and almost linear stretch of coast that extends to Arica, Chile, where the 2007 Rip Curl Pro WCT was held. Environment: This is one big beach to the border so currents can sweep along the coast.
