About Villa

Villa is a sandy beach break located in Chorrillos, near the Pantanos de Villa natural area, south of Lima. It usually offers peaks with lefts and rights that change quite a bit depending on the day and can get lively when more sea comes in, which gives it a varied, fun character. It works with northwest, west and southwest swells, and orders best with mid to high tide and light wind, ideally from the east. It is a wave recommended for intermediate surfers who enjoy active sandbanks and the shifting reading of the peaks. Its proximity to the Pantanos de Villa reserve adds a unique natural setting just minutes from the city. As an accessible beach break in southern Lima, it is a good option for frequent sessions. For the Lima surfer looking for versatile waves over sand in a distinctive setting, Villa is an interesting alternative on the Chorrillos coast.

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)
