Los Piccolos is a surf spot located along a stretch of sandy beach that can have decent waves under the right conditions. It really comes alive on windy days, especially when a swell is pushed down the east coast. The spot offers a long crescent beach, making it a good option for surfers looking for various wave types without too much hassle. It’s a bit better exposed than Playa Blanca, which can help in catching some waves.

The waves at Los Piccolos come from both the north and east directions. It handles swell sizes starting from around 1ft (0.3 meters), which is great for beginners looking to catch their first waves. Surfers can expect both lefts and rights here, with the north end occasionally delivering a decent longboard wave. The best times to surf are during low to mid and high tides. If the wind is coming from the northwest, that’s preferred for better surfing conditions.

Keep in mind that talking to the multi-lingual lifeguards can provide useful insights when you’re out there. They can help you understand the current conditions and let you know about any flags or warnings in the area. So, whether you're just starting out or looking for a mellow surf session, Los Piccolos has got some options worth checking out.
