Toroko surf guide

Toroko is a surf spot located in Hanga Roa, known for its mixed surf conditions. While not the most consistent area, it tends to hold its own compared to nearby spots. This reef break picks up both winter SouthWest swells and the short summer NorthWest swells, making it a go-to for surfers looking to ride some waves.

The wave setup at Toroko offers a mix of short rights and longer, more walled lefts, which can be fun for those with some experience. It handles swell sizes around 3 feet (about 1 meter), which is pretty manageable. The best conditions typically arise with NorthWest swells, but SouthWest swells can also deliver decent waves. Most of the time, you'll find the best rides during low, mid, and high tide, with a preference for Southeast winds that help shape the waves nicely. Intermediates will find Toroko friendly, as getting into waves here isn't too difficult, and the reef isn't overly shallow.

Overall, Toroko offers a decent experience for intermediate surfers looking to improve their skills. Just keep an eye on the swell sizes and wind directions to get the best out of your session. It's a spot worth checking out if you're in the area and want to grab some waves.
