Punta Tur

Punta Tur is an exposed point break on the Piura coast known for being able to work year-round, with a clear peak period from March through November. The break is described as consistently producing waves, especially when south/SW swells arrive, and it breaks over a rocky bottom where rocks are the primary hazard. For surfers, conditions are characterized by peeling waves with good quality and moderate wave power. Reported swell guidance centers on a workable south to SW range, with typical working swell height described as about 1.0 to 2.5 meters. The break is exposed, so wind and sea state can meaningfully affect ride quality, and the rocky entry/exit is often the limiting factor—especially as swell size increases. Wind conditions in the broader Punta Tur & Illescas Peninsula cluster are dominated by trade winds and an afternoon thermal reinforcement. In the provided wind split for the spot, winds are described as 57% blown and 41% clean, with March to November highlighted as a key period for surf/wind overlap. Afternoon winds are also described as commonly cross-offshore or side-shore. Safety-wise, Punta Tur is a rugged, remote shoreline with no lifeguards and limited organized rescue services. Larger swells can bring lateral drift that may pull you away from the peak, and access/operations are described as relying on remote tracks. The primary practical advice from the enrichment data is to protect your feet for the rocky shoreline and to plan carefully for self-rescue and navigation around the peak during stronger conditions.
