Pavones Beach

Pavones is definitely a surf beach for professionals. The waves have several sections which allow for carving, pumping and even showing off. Contrary to the majority of the other surfing beaches, surf here is best during rainy season (April to October) when waves hit the peaks.

This pristine unexplored beach has an extension of about a mile and surfing is the main reason why may are willing to make this long journey. Very few accommodations and restaurants available here.
