  • THE WAVERIDING CONDITIONS

    sunset surf

    The Peruvian northshore hides some of the best wave spots on earth.
  • Here are just a few names:
    Chicama, the longest leftside wave of the world, the “Miss Universe”.
    Cabo Blanco, shelter of Hemingway almost sixty years ago and a place of world-class tubular waves.
    Lobitos where the long perfect waves regularly break on a surreal background of disused oil refinery.

    The reputation of the waves in Northern Peru is second to none! Their abundance and quality is the result of an exceptional geographical situation: at the confluent of two ocean currents and at the edge of two hemispheres.

    From May to December, constant wind wipes out that deserted and spectacular coastline. During this time, a unique combination searched by every waverider occurs almost undisrupted:
    WIND AND WAVES!

    MANCORA

    MANCORA

    • We are based in Mancora in Northen Peru, very close to Ecuador. Endless summer, warm water, waves and gastronomy are the reasons why it recently became a chosen destination either for local or international tourists. Nevertheless, this former fishermen village is still hidden from many and is never overcrowded. The place remains pleasant all year around and offers the choice of partying every night or relaxing on a desert beach or on a “hamaca”. The ideal kitesurfing holidays !

    THE OTHER ACTIVITIES IN MANCORA


    Mancora and other nearby small resorts offer a range of outdoor activities to cater for all types: Try a spot of deep sea fishing, submarine fishing, or take a canoe tour through the mangroves. Alternatively spend a day on a quad excursion in the Sierra or simply relax with a massage in a spa.

  • PURE PERU



    • Peru is a mystical place. It was once called “the country of extremes” because of its incredible diversity of natural ecosystems and landscapes.
    No matter where people travel, either on the Amazonian jungle, in the desert or up the Andes Mountains, people are always awe-inspired by the heart-gripping nature and a deep-rooted Inca culture.
