Cordeles is a beachbreak located in Bahia Moreno, right next to the famous arch of La Portada. This spot is known for its decent consistency, making it a go-to for surfers in the area. With a less rocky environment compared to its surroundings, it features crumbly cliffs and small pocket beaches stretching north to La Rinconada.
The surf at Cordeles works best with a south-west swell direction, but it can also handle swells coming from the south and north-west. Swells as small as 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) can produce fun waves. The waves here break over sand and offer both left and right rides, which is great for surfers looking to mix things up. For the best sessions, aim for a northeast wind and plan your surf during low or mid tide. This spot is particularly suitable for beginners, making it a good choice for those just starting to ride the waves.
Besides the surf, the beach itself provides a laid-back vibe, and it's a nice spot to chill when you’re not in the water. With its user-friendly waves and welcoming atmosphere, Cordeles is a chill spot to hit when you're in the area.
