About Órganos

Órganos, a quiet fishing village just minutes from Máncora (Piura), is a more relaxed alternative for surfing in northern Peru. Its wave is a good-quality left reef break, with sections that shape up nicely when the right swell arrives, and it usually has fewer people in the water than the busier beaches nearby. Like the whole Talara coastline, it enjoys warm water all year round, so you can surf in boardshorts even in winter. The best season runs from October to March, with north swells and a summery vibe. Its location is one of its great advantages: it serves as a comfortable base to explore nearby spots such as Vichayito, El Ñuro and Máncora itself, all a short distance away. The town keeps a simple, seafaring character, with oceanfront lodgings and a growing surf scene, ideal for those looking for waves without the crowds.

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)
