About Santa Rosa

The Santa Rosa cove is located in the district of the same name, about 20 kilometers north of Chiclayo, in Lambayeque, and is above all a fishing village with a strong seafaring identity. Unlike other spots of the same name in Lima, the Santa Rosa beach in the north is characterized by its flat shores and calm waters, with gentle waves ideal for beginners and for a relaxed day by the sea. Its real appeal lies in the life of the cove: colorful artisanal boats, the daily landing of fresh fish and top-level seafood cuisine. It is a place to enjoy the sea without demands, learn your first moves on friendly waves and immerse yourself in the fishing culture of northern Peru. For the surfer traveling Lambayeque, Santa Rosa complements nearby spots such as Pimentel and Puerto Eten very well, adding authenticity, good food and a genuine coastal atmosphere.

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)
