Surf Spots in O'Higgins
The O'Higgins region is the heart of surfing in Chile, with Pichilemu as its undisputed capital. Here you will find Punta de Lobos, one of the best lefts in South America and a benchmark for big-wave surfing, along with classics such as La Puntilla, ideal for all levels, and Matanzas, a mecca for kitesurfing and good rights. Its waves break over rock and sand bottoms and work very consistently with south swells, especially in autumn and winter. The water is cold all year round, so it is surfed with a wetsuit. With its surfing atmosphere, its rock-formation scenery and its enormous wave quality, O'Higgins is an essential stop for any surfer visiting Chile.
