Carquin surf guide

Carquin is a surf spot located about 3km south of Huacho. It features a left-hand wave that breaks over a mix of boulders and sand. While it may not be the most consistent spot around, surfers can still find some decent rides here, especially when conditions align right. It's important to note that the area has an industrial backdrop, which might not be the most picturesque setting for your surf session.

The best conditions for surfing at Carquin happen with a solid south swell, and the waves work well when theyโ€™re around 1.2 to 1.5 meters (4 to 5 feet). The optimal swell direction is south, but it can also handle waves coming from the west. Surfers tend to find the waves most enjoyable during low to high tides. Be aware that the rides can be shorter compared to nearby spots like Centinela, making it a better fit for intermediate surfers looking for a bit of a challenge.

If you're planning to surf Carquin, east winds usually make for the best conditions. The spot can handle various swell sizes, but you'll get the best experience when things align just right. It's a good idea to stay in nearby Huacho and commute to the spot for your surf sessions.
