Máncora

A small resort on Peru's north-west coast, voted South America's leading beach destination, with a long palm-lined beach and the wave conditions the Peruvian north shore is known for. Consistent wind from May to December lets you cruise along the coast, and the big waves are the playground for experienced riders, while beginners learn with the local kite club. Peru's wind season is long, roughly April to December, and warm water makes it the country's easiest entry point.
