Pellines Surf Guide

Pellines is a small locality 26 km south of Constitucion. Keep a sharp eye out for it, being so small you might just go through without even noticing. Composed principally of a fishing harbor, a few shops and some small fishing houses, this pointbreak wave, although not as good as other gems of the region, can be a good backup when most of the other spots don't have any waves. This spot can produce some fun lefts when other close spots are unsurfable.
