Pacasmayo in Lambayeque is an exposed beach and reef break that has consistent surf. Winter is the favoured time of year for surfing here. Works best in offshore winds from the northeast. Groundswells more frequent than windswells and the ideal swell angle is from the south southwest. A left hand reef. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Submerged rocks are a hazard.
