power wave - As good as the comments , I surfed it a couple of times at the 6-10ft range . Amicable locals who showed me a good jump entrance off the rocks .Thanx dudes. It can be a bit fat tho and the water aint pretty .To get there just take a taxi from the centro or Barranco etc . You can leave you stuff at one of the cafes in the front.

La ola mas hermosa en la Capital de Peru - Esta ola merece mucho respeto para los que tienen la dicha de surfearla y para las personas que solo pueden verla y quedar asombrados con su belleza. Salvemos esta ola y tratemos de hacer posible preservar esta hermosa ola que muchos lugares del mundo no tiene y nose puede comparar con ninguna obra humana, la naturaleza y su medio ambiente esta en peligro desde hace mucho tiempo ya, Por favor tomemos conciencia de los danos ya hechos con muchas olas. Para las personas que estan en el proyecto de malograr la hermosa rompiente.

Herradura is AWESOME - I caught Herradura w/ solid 14-16 foot faces and it was intense! Fast wave that break right on the point next to the rocks. When I was there about 12-14 guys were out. 8 of the 12 ripped and 10 of the 12 were sitting right on the point so there was plenty of waves to pick off when one of them fell. Locals were totally cool. The wave is 400-600 yards of freight training fun. Awesome!

VERY GOOD - Surf this wave, with low tide and south west swell (not need to be so big with this direction) ! Esta ola revienta buenazo con la marea baja y crecidas sur oeste, no se necesita oleaje tan grande con esta direccion de swell.

We need your Help people from Wannasurf cuz La Herradura could dissapear!! - Hello People my name is Javier i'm from Lima Peru and i just wanna tell you that "La Herradura" is one of the best waves in whole southamerica, and GREMCO (a peruvian construction enterprise) (Grupo de Empresas Constructoras S.A., GREMCO)wants to construct a marina in the palce the wave braks and they have and "agreement" with the Instituto Nacional de Cultura (Culture National Institute), INC, because the INC will have a 25 % of all the incomes of the services of the construction, cuz the beach is located in an national inheritance area, and also the corrupted peruvian President Alejandro Toledo and the Goverment itself will have a percentage of the construccion of the "Marina" so will be very difficult to try to avoid this stupid construccion. We will be very pleased if you or surfrider fundation can help us in save this wonderfull world class 500 meters long and hollow tubes wave!! the web site of the construction enterprise is http://www.gremco.com.pe , but is really strange since this weekend a surfing championship was hold in this beach called "Salvemos la Herradura" (Save the Herradura) that was supported as well for our brand new world WCT champion Sofia Mulanovich, and all the Peruvian surfing comunity, so as i was saying, since this championship was hold in this place the website of the construccion of the "marina" project in the area is not working anymore ''' pure considence!!, so we hope you can help us in order to save one of the best waves in southamerica, kindy regards from lima Peru!!!
