Pancora
Edit SpotAbout
A beautiful spot to watch when it is huge. Mesmerizing.
Atmosphere:
Long stretch of lonely beach. Contstant winds and waves.
Additional Info:
Merciless beach break with massive tubes. Offshore on North wind days. Always has waves, to the north end toward Punta de los Lobos there are a couple of rock reefs with thick unforgiving rights. Reforms on the inside when the outside is too big. Absolute power, lots of moving water. Over 5 foot and it is a force to be feared. Rated fun but on offshore days can be world class....rare though.
