About
B Cs is an exposed beach-and-reef break on the Aguada coast that can work most of the year, with best conditions typically in November. Surfing here is shaped by reef hazards and a powerful, heavy-wave character—especially when a north swell lines up with the right wind window. For waves, the most favorable swell direction is north (with north/northwest also reported as optimal). The spot is described as holding significant size and producing hollow walls, with waves able to stay open on larger winter swells rather than immediately closing out. Breaks are reported as heavy both directions (rights and lefts), with ride length varying by swell angle. Wind reports suggest a sea-breeze influence, and south to southeast winds are specifically described as giving clean, groomed faces. Typical wind ranges are reported around 10–15 knots, though wind reliability is noted as fair; this matters because the spot is exposed and can be sensitive to conditions. Safety is a major concern at this launch: shallow reef, rocks, and sea urchins are repeatedly highlighted. Strong rip currents can occur during high surf, lifeguards are not present, and rescue coverage is limited. Booties are strongly recommended, and it’s important to respect the local lineup and wait your turn.
