Punta de Lobos
Waves, nature and relaxation
The surf
The lefts off Punta de Lobos are consistent, and often epic. This is a great spot for any aspiring big-wave riders, as it's pretty deep out there and your chances for serious injury are minimal. The cliffs protect the break from the dreaded - and almost daily - SW wind. This break has many sections and moods, depending on the swell and tide. When it's giant (rideable up to solid 20-foot), the lineup is way outside the big rock (the experienced big wave riders take off right in front of the rock). When it's double-overhead-plus, the wave is actually more gentle - other than sheer size, it's not a super intimidating big wave and can push you a few hundred yards with blissful barrels. Though this spot can get crowded, there are a few different take-off zones to space surfers out a bit.
Punta de Lobos is the hotspot for intermediate and advance surfers. While Pichilemu is more geared towards beginners. Both spots offer a solid left and regardless of your surf level, the glassy waves of Pichilemu and Punta de Lobos will surely have you shredding daily and having a great surf adventure in Chile.

Getting there
Punta de Lobos
Patrick
Punta de Lobos is the heart of surf culture in Chile. This is where many of Chile's best surfers honed their skills. The point is also the historic home to generations of artisanal fishermen who hand-harvest kelp, shellfish, and local fish species.
Save The Waves
Punta Lobos was approved as a World Surfing Preserve in 2013. This unique region is a global biodiversity hotspot, boasting incredible marine and terrestrial resources. The cold nutrient-rich waters attract a variety of species such as Southern Right Whales, Fin whales, Southern Sperm whales, Orcas, common sea lions, sea turtles, Humboldt, and Magellanic penguins, oystercatchers, cormorants, gulls, pelicans, and boobies. Growing on the point itself are a number of unique plant species, including the cactus Echinopsis bolligeriana, which has been identified as an endangered endemic species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
