About Pasamayo

Pasamayo is located at approximately kilometer 75 of the Panamericana Norte, on the border between the district of Ancón, in Lima, and the province of Huaral. It is a spot known both for its waves and for its spectacular setting of massive dunes falling toward the sea, a unique landscape on the central coast. Its access is somewhat complicated and usually requires walking down the sand, which gives it an adventurous character and keeps the area with few people in the water. It is a technical destination, recommended mainly for intermediate and advanced surfers looking for quality waves away from the crowds. The best season comes with south swells. Because of its relative isolation and rugged setting, Pasamayo is a different stop within the Lima coastline, ideal for the surfer who values exploration, the imposing scenery and the reward of surfing in a place off the usual circuit.

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)
