Surf Break: Pampilla

Name: Pampilla
Type: reef
Reliability: consistent
Best Swell: SW Offshore Wind: NE

Pampilla in Lima is a fairly exposed reef break that has dependable surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds blow from the northeast. Most of the surf here comes from groundswells and the ideal swell direction is from the southwest. There are left and right breaking reefs. Likely to be crowded if working. Beware of rocks and pollution.
