La Virazon
Edit SpotAbout
The only thing to be aware of is an old boat that sunk many years ago, that is covered by the break, but you can still see it's helix, so you surf away from that and it'll be ok.
Additional Info:
You can park your car in "La Virazón" club. There you are on the beach. The spot is one of Argentina's finest.
