More about Punta Dos surfspot

Punta Dos is a barrelling wave that explodes on a gnarled reef. It is an uncompromising wave that will punish the hesitant and therefore for experienced surfers only. It's mainly bodyboarders in the line-up and while it appears to be a righthand point-style set-up, there are lefts depending on the swell angle. More crazy lefts just north at La Cosa.

Almost all the waves in Iquique suck hard off the rocky slabs of reef and lurch forward in a hurry from take-off. Dry sucks, boils and urchins are all part of the equation, so skill and caution needed in equal measure.
