Las Flores Surf Guide
Located at the tail end of the country's east coast, Las Flores awaits in truly stunning, tropical coast, righthand pointbreak. On big S or SW swells, Las Flores rivals any righthand pointbreak in the world: it barrels hard out at the top of the point and reels perfectly to the inside, offering a relatively safe paddle back out.
