(Peru – Lima)
| Name: | Laniakea |
|---|---|
| Type: | reef |
| Reliability: | very consistent |
| Best Swell: SW | Offshore Wind: ENE |
Laniakea in Lima is an exposed reef break that has very consistent waves and works all around the year. Works best in offshore winds from the east northeast. Tends to receive distant groundswells and the optimum swell angle is from the southwest. There is a right breaking reef. Good surf at all stages of the tide. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water. Beware of rocks, man-made danger (buoys etc...) and pollution.
