Pichilemu, first surfed in 1983, is the first spot in the next surf hub. It quickly became a popular destination with surf travellers because of the endless point breaks and laid back atmosphere. Pichilemu itself is a small village and home to what, when the sandbanks are aligned properly, may be the longest wave in Chile.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
