Located in Costa Verde, Peru, Waikiki is a fun beach break that offers up soft, easygoing lefts and rights, perfect for longboarding. The waves here are easy to surf and break for up to 100 meters (about 328 feet) over a boulder and sand bottom. Very similar to its namesake in Hawaii.
What are the best surf conditions for Waikiki?
Waikiki gets good between waist-high and overhead. We recommend riding a longboard here. This break is suitable for all levels of surfers. The surf here is very consistent (8/10) and will get busy at peak times (5/10). The best winds are from the Northeast. The best swells are from the South, Southwest, and West. Works on a low to mid-tide best.
We recommend wearing a spring suit in the summers when water temperatures rise to 22°C (about 72°F). In the winter, a 3/2 wetsuit is best when water temperatures drop to 16°C (about 61°F). See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
