About This Break

Máncora is one of northern Peru’s best-known surf destinations, offering warm water, consistent swell, and a long, peeling left-hand point break just offshore from the lively beach town of Máncora. The wave works over a rock-and-sand bottom and, when conditions line up, produces long, clean walls with plenty of room for carving, trimming, and linking turns. Its generally approachable character makes Máncora popular with intermediate surfers and longboarders, while larger swells can bring more speed and power for experienced surfers.
