Surf: La Pampilla looks just the same as Punta Roquitas with small conditions, but the shifty peaks develop into a better right in larger swells. Rolling faces and easy shoulders make this a favourite with the longboard crew. Small swells need low tide and big swells will hold up at higher tide when the paddling and duck-diving can be a chore to get out the back. There's more waves at the adjacent beaches of Tres Picos. Environment: The Jose Duany Cup, the longest running surfing contest in Peru is organised there every year around February or March.
