Spot info
- Town: Pichilemu (O'Higgins)
- Water: Sea
- Sports: Surf
- Best wind directions: SESSES
A long left-hand point break a few kilometres south of Pichilemu, and Chile's most famous wave. South-west swells from the Southern Ocean wrap around the headland and peel along a rocky point, and on big days it becomes a serious big-wave spot. The prevailing southerly blows cross-offshore. The water is cold year-round, and the point is a protected surf reserve.
