General Overview

Pacasmayo is another impossibly long left point break that on its good days rivals Chicama for the longest wave in the world. The wave itself has many personalities. There are fatter slower sections that suddenly change moods and you have to start racing to make the section. Like many point breaks of this size it is sometimes easier to walk back up to the point after a long ride.
