Visitor reviews of Los Pocitos surf break
(NOTE: Reviews may be edited by our content team for the purposes of ensuring accurate and relevant information)
“Buenas playa, de fácil acceso. olas consistentes casi todo el año, aunque no de gran tamaño. exceptuando temporadas de swells o huracanes.
suele haber mas gente los fines de semanas.
si tienes suerte puedes observar tortugas marinas nadando en la playa.
se pueden correr olas de izquierda y derecha.”
