An underrated explosion of surf awaits you!

Peru has a coastline longer than the USA’s entire west coast. It’s a melting pot of incredible surfing spots which span from the capital to unknown fishing villages and it’s just one plane ride away. Peru has gentle rolling sets, some incredible monsters which stem from the Pacific Ocean’s raw power and every type of curl in between! Right now, Peru is hidden from surfer sonar which gives you the distinct pleasure of carving epic surf memories in one of the most underrated surf spots in the world.

Be Aware

Peru is an underrated surf destination. It’s well sorted in terms of infrastructure and diversity of locations but going to any new country is going to be a little challenging to organise. There will be language barriers, cultures to understand and get to know, road routes to navigate and hidden surf spots to locate. Does that mean you need to grow a headache? We think not! Don’t stress. Getting you to Peru safely and completely prepared is what separates LUEX from the rest of the competition. We offer the best professional teams to do all the hard work for you so that your incredible road trip adventure is stress-free, from beginning to end.

"The walk down to the local spots is roughly 8 minutes. Big choice of rental boards. Highly recommendable for a trip with a limited budget. We have enjoyed it a lot!"

Loooooong waves is the thing I will remember the most about Chicama. That was a real cool surf experience. Might go back next year! :)

4 Reasons why you should book a Peru surf trip

01

Surf the longest wave in the world in Peru

The small coastal town of Puerto Chicama, in North-Western Peru, is home to the longest wave in the world. It’s perfect. A 2.2 kilometer left-breaking monster of glass and sheer beauty awaits you. When that swell hits the shallow waters near Chicama, it forms a wave so long you actually cannot see the wave in its entirety as it wraps around each bend in the escarpment. Did someone say BUCKET LIST?

02

Uncrowded surf spots galore!

One of the best things about surfing in an underrated surf destination like Peru is the fact that there are plenty of uncrowded locations to be slayed. Pick a month and you will be guaranteed to find a distinct lack of people. A quick meander from your accommodation will leave your jaw dragging along the crisp sand as you wonder where everyone is. It’s perfectly pristine and it’s waiting for you.

03

Surf where champions are bred

It should come as no surprise that the country has produced world-class surfers who compete on the international scene every single year. If you are patient enough, you could attempt the record of Peruvian Cristobal del Col, the surfer who made 34 turns on Chicama, the longest wave spot in the world!

04

Peru offers food and drink for the soul

Picture a day out on Peruvian waters, nailing wave after memorable wave. You come out from the surf, board in hand and sit on a nearby chill spot, admiring Lisas (a type of local fish) leap out of the water in the pursuit of prey. Now, like the Lisas you require food, so you head to one of the many beachside restaurants where you find an infinite variety of seafood options and even more ways to have them served! We are talking about causas, ceviches, and Pisco. And legend has it a cold cerveza Cusqueña after a day of demanding surf is just what the surf doctor ordered!
