About Las conchitas Ancón

Las Conchitas is a spot located in the Ancón area, north of Lima, valued for its quiet atmosphere and getaway character. It is a beach break that breaks over a sand bottom, with peaks that can offer lefts and rights depending on the bank, and that works best with south swells. One of its greatest charms is the possibility of camping in the area and getting up early to catch the best waves at dawn, when the sea tends to be cleaner and there are fewer people in the water. It is a wave recommended for intermediate surfers looking for a different experience, away from the usual circuit south of the capital. The best season comes between April and October, with south swells. For the Lima surfer who wants to combine surf, camping and oceanfront sunrises in a more solitary setting, Las Conchitas is an attractive alternative on the northern coast of Lima.

Condition Scoring

Rating Algorithm 1-10

Each forecast hour receives a score from 1 to 10, calculated by adding points for different factors:

Wave Height (0-4 pts)

< 0.5m = 0 pts | 0.5-1.0m = 1 pt | 1.0-1.5m = 2 pts | 1.5-2.5m = 3 pts | > 2.5m = 4 pts

Dominant Period (-1 to 3 pts)

Uses the dominant/peak period (wave_period). < 8s = -1 pt (wind swell, messy) | 8-10s = 0 pts | 10-12s = 1 pt | 12-16s = 2 pts | > 16s = 3 pts

Wind (-2 to +2 pts)

Glassy (< 5 km/h): +2. Light wind (5-10 km/h): +1. Moderate wind (10-20 km/h): offshore +1, onshore -1. Strong wind (> 20 km/h): onshore -2, offshore -1. Wind data covers the full 15-day forecast window.

Secondary Swell (-1 to +1 pt)

If a secondary swell with height ≥ 0.3m and long period (≥ 10s) exists, +1 point is added. If the period is short (< 10s) and direction differs > 45° from the primary swell, -1 point penalty for crossed seas. If directions are similar (≤ 45°), no penalty is applied.

Rating by score:

Flat (1) Poor (2-3) Fair (4-5) Good (6-7) Epic (8-10)
