Located in Mar del Plata, Argentina, La Popular is a fun stretch of beach break that offers up fun, hollow peaks. The waves here require a bit of skill to surf and break for up to 50 meters over a sand bottom.
What are the best surf conditions for La Popular?
Gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a shortboard and then a step-up as the size picks up. This break is suitable for intermediate and advanced-level surfers. The surf here is pretty consistent (6/10) and will always have a crew (7/10). The best winds are from the West. The best swells are from the East, South, and Southeast. Works on all tides.
We recommend wearing a spring suit in the summer when water temperatures rise to 21 degrees. In the winter a 5/4 is best when water temperatures drop to 10 degrees. See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
