If you look for flatwater and some waves - Paracas
for waves - Mancora

Your best choice for those months is Pacasmayo and the northern coast (Lobitos, Mancora)
Paracas blows about 5 to 6 days per week, 15 to 20 knots, sometimes above 30 but it has only one wave spot worth mentioning ond it is not very consistant.
If you want waves, go north.

Hey Derek...gonna use Peru as a warmup to the CPT season?
Having lived and instructed quite a bit in both places, you will have fun in the north of Peru in Mancora/Lobitos. But the waves are very different than CPT. Not nearly as big, but much cleaner. And break on points, instead of down the coast. But the water is warmer.
You can get more info here on Mancora and its conditions:

Feel free to hit me up with any questions.

Cool thanks guys. Heading to Brazil for a wedding so thought I'd check out the waves. Been a while since I had a holiday.
