Punta Hermosa, just South of Lima is considered Peru's big wave location. This area of headlands, reefs and coves tends to focus the swell energy creating ideal surfing conditions. The largest wave in South America, Pico Alto is located here. Wind conditions in Peru are often very light and this in turn creates glassy waves year round. Because most of the surf spots in Punta Hermosa are reef point breaks, paddling out when it's big is not a problem, always dry hair. Water temperatures are comfortable. In the summer you can wear just trunks or a spring suit. In the winter either a spring or full suit depending on conditions. Sourced with thanks from  Tresquillas.com.ar/trips/surfcampperu.htm
