THE WAVES
Punta Hermosa is a great area for a surfer to find himself in, as there are ample consistent spots within walking distance of each other. In the southern hemisphere winter, the waves around Punta Hermosa are typically big. While a lot of the headlands favor the rights waves, there are also hollow lefts, plus a few offshore winds that handle serious size and power.
The most important waves are "La Isla" a reef peak, good right, power and long. "El Paso" reef peak, power and hollow tube right with a very good left section too. These waves break in front of the Surf Hostel.
Twenty minutes by walk break "Señoritas" with left power and sometimes hollow tube while "Caballeros" produce longer, fatter rights. At only 1 km. from the Surf Hostel, "Punta Rocas" is by far the most consistent wave that breaks all year round. These waves have been qualified as Internationals Championships Spots in the last years.
The dominant swell is S-SW, the swell size average from November to May is 3-4ft and from June to October is 5-6ft, with a consistency of 70% on summer and 80% on winter. The dominant wind is SE-S, with an average force F3. The water temperature on summer (Dec-Apr) goes from 62-68f and on winter (Jun-Oct) goes from 57-61f. Wetsuit is necessary.
Punta Hermosa Surf Property is open year round and is ideal for those who love the clean air, want to be relaxed and/or want to spend a surfing adventure.
We offer special discounts for long stays or groups over 4 people.
The price can be changed for high season, Peruvian summer (Nov 15 - May 15) and New Year week (Dec 27 - Jan 2). See for prices at these times.
Punta Hermosa Surf Property is at only at one block from the beach 'Playa Negra' and Main Boulevard.
You can go by taxi from Lima by US$ 20-30, be sure to look for a safe taxi company. Don't try to change the property by taxi driver recommendation. You will need to spend at least an hour away.
If you decide to go by bus, the best option is LIMA-SAN BARTOLO number 16 (white with brown lines) by US$ 1.50, this bus line goes into Punta Hermosa town, others no. You need to get off at "complejo deportivo" and walk down 2 blocks. On your right you can find Bolognesi St. look for the 407 at the next corner. The better option to take this micro-bus is down Benavides Bridge to the south. Be careful with your things on rush hours (4-9pm). You will need to spend at least one and a half hour away.
A taxi from the airport to Punta Hermosa (more than 60 km/38 miles) probably will cost US$ 70 for the car (from 1 to 4 people). You will need to spend at least two hours away.
Advise the reception in advance about your arrival details and if you need any transfer arranged.
