Renaca

Renaca is the north-end beachbreak of Viña del Mar, where offshore boulders sculpt peaky A-frames into the sand and the south end fades into closeouts. The best days are winter storm days; the spot turns busy fast in summer and on weekends, with the north parking lot making it an easy check.

The Wave

Best with west to southwest swell and east wind offshore.

Medium-low tide is the sweet spot, the north-end peaks are the focus, and summer weekends can get packed enough to make the lineup feel testy.

Lineup Guide

Rips show up when the swell has proper size, and the big parking lot at the north end keeps access simple.

Respect the local peak and watch for submerged hazards during lower tidal stages.
