Pacasmayo is a sandy beach break located on Peru's northwestern coast, facing northwest toward the Pacific Ocean. The spot features a long, gently sloping beach with a pier structure at the northern end. Wave conditions are modest with average heights around 1.3 meters, making this primarily a beginner-friendly location. The beach offers relatively uncomplicated access and a straightforward break structure. However, the spot is severely constrained by extremely low wind reliability at just 2.5%, meaning consistent rideable wind days are rare. When wind does occur, northeast to north directions would provide ideal side-shore conditions. Water temperature averages 22.4°C, which is warm enough for minimal thermal protection. The spot is most suitable for beginners seeking to practice in mellow conditions when wind appears, though the frequency of suitable sessions is limited by the arid desert climate's light wind patterns. Kiters should be aware of the pier infrastructure, shallow areas near shore, and the need for patience regarding wind availability.
