About This Spot
Las Tres Islas is a developed beach break located on Peru's Pacific coast near Lima, facing west toward open ocean. The spot features a sandy beach with organized recreational infrastructure, including multiple resort-style facilities with pools and amenities. The coastline is heavily developed with residential and commercial structures immediately adjacent to the beach. Wave heights average 1.73m, suitable for progression but modest in size. Wind reliability is critically low at 0.0%, indicating this is not a reliable kitesurfing destination despite average wind speeds of 3.9 knots. The area experiences rough water conditions typical of Peru's cold Pacific current. Best wind would come from the north (side-shore orientation). The spot is most suitable for beginners during the rare occasions when wind is present, though the low reliability makes it unsuitable for dedicated kitesurfing sessions. Kiters should be aware of heavy beach usage, fixed infrastructure, and the general unpredictability of wind at this location.
