We all know Chicama today and the world’s longest wave. A break rivalled only by Skeleton Bay in Namibia for length. But back in the ’60s, things were much different and much of Peru’s 2000mile coastline was an untapped treasure trove of surfing riches. This is the story of how Chicama was discovered and what the place is like today. Enjoy :))
