Puerto Eten also has a long, busted-up pier, with mushy beachbreak stretching to the north and some more interesting peaks anchored to the rocks just south of the pier. The best wave is the left point found below the lighthouse (Punta La Farola) in the next bay, when SW swells wrap onto the rocks and wall up nicely for a few hundred metres.
Consistent and uncrowded. Look for rights in summer swells back toward the pier.

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.
