Spot guide
Cabo Blanco is an NW-facing reef break in El Alto, Piura, Peru. It picks up swell from SSW to N, and land, islands, reefs or shallow banks block about 32% of the directions it faces. Offshore wind here blows from the SE: light winds or SE breezes usually mean the cleanest surf, while NW onshores chop it up.
