From the settlement of Santa Rosa walk south past the point of Santa Rosa, across the dry river bed and pretty much in front of this is El Huayco. It is between Santa rosa and Peña rosa
This is a useful spot as it works on all tides and with small swell. However care is needed at low tide as it is a shore-break on rocks. Nothing too serious but not for everyone. Usually left, but sometimes get a short right working.
Overview
Atmosphere
Along with Arica and Explosivos, El Huayco is usually surfed when the point breaks are not working due to lack of swell.
General
A fun wave, not as consistently good as other spots in the area - but on its day can produce great waves (see photos!)
Penascal, Huayco, Santa Rosa (inthat order)
near el huayco, there is Santa Rosa and penascal..WORLD CLASS WAVES. they will kick your ass if you are caught jerking off or doing something else instead of be paying attention.

HUAYCO 3 STARS
This wave is one of the best in the south of Lima, there are always waves there, with small a medium swell. Sometimes is perfect and tubular, this wave have 3 stars and sometimes 4. El huayco es una ola de la PUTA MADRE Y RECONTRA FIEL CARAJO.
