Pedarnales is a laid-back surf spot that mainly caters to beach break lovers. Located in a region known for its shrimp industry, it has a few stretches of sand where surfers can catch some decent waves. The access might be a bit tricky, requiring a 4WD, but it's worth a visit if you're in the area. This spot doesn't always offer consistent surf, but when conditions align, you can have some fun in the water.

The best waves at Pedarnales usually come from the NorthWest swell, but it can also handle swells from the South. The beach breaks are generally suitable for various skill levels, including beginners. You can expect waves that peak at around 2ft (0.6m) to enjoy some playful rides. The optimal times to surf are during low to mid or high tide—just keep an eye on the wind, as easterly winds work best here. There's a chance to catch some lefts and rights, especially when the sand at the river mouth is positioned just right.

When planning your surf session, keep in mind that the mornings often provide offshores, which can help shape the waves nicely. While this spot may not always be "epic," it has its moments, especially with the right swell and tide. Just get ready to deal with a bit of variability in the conditions and enjoy what Pedarnales has to offer.
