Located in Guayas and Manabi, Ecuador, Punta Chulluype is a fun, punchy reef break that offers up barreling lefts and rights. The waves here require a bit of skill to surf and break for up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a rock bottom. Right in town so it’ll be crowded.
What are the best surf conditions for Punta Chulluype?
Gets good between chest high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard when smaller and 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 somewhat consistent (5/10) and will get very crowded (8/10). The best winds are from the Southeast. The best swells are from the Northwest and West. Works on a mid to high tide best.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini year-round. Water temperatures range between 27°C and 25°C (81°F to 77°F). See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
