Located in Southern Peru, Boca del Rio is a fun stretch of beach break in a small part town that offers up short but good rides. The waves here have the potential to be difficult and will break for up to 50 meters (164 feet) over a mix of rocky reefs and sand.
What are the best surf conditions for Boca del Rio?
Boca del Rio gets good between waist-high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard when smaller and a shortboard, then a step up as the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here is consistent (7/10) and usually has some people on it (6/10). The best winds are from the Northeast. The best swells are from the South, Southwest, or West. Works on all tides.
We recommend wearing boardshorts or a bikini in the summer when water temperatures rise to 22°C (71.6°F). In winter, a 4/3 wetsuit is best as water temps drop to about 15°C (59°F). See the temperature chart below for more data on this.
