The Kitesurfing In Pacasmayo
It is possible to Kitesurf in Pacasmayo all year but the best chances of great conditions are from March through to December when the winds are the strongest.
The wind tends to kick in around mid-morning building until an average of 18/20 knots by lunch time then blowing until sun down. Early morning is a perfect time for a surf or SUP session; the glassy long waves at this time inspire huge confidence for even the most inexperienced.
Kitesurfers can launch from directly in from of our Pacasmayo Kitesurf Hotel, although the cross off shore wind makes for a challenging initial start. Otherwise, for a small fee, a motor taxi will take you the 10 mins ride out to the point by the Lighthouse so you can start straight into the best waves.
There is a jet ski safety cover if needed but due to the very large bay and catchment area the waves will always bring you into land eventually so it is quite safe given a good level of kiter. There is a great team on hand to help you launch and land plus a kite repair centre if needed.
The minimum level required for kitesurfing in Pacasmayo is confident independent rider with at least some experience in waves.
