Awesome once again mate! Chile is great, never surfed there though. You scored some nice uncrowded waves. Brasil is another story, there's some great spots there, had about 12 sessions over 2 trips in 2010 & 2015….Try Ilah Grande, Lopes Mendes if you can make it over. I have a couple of contacts those ways if you need, enjoy, yeeooww 🤙🏄🌴🌅
Hey Dan, great video!! I'm a Brit living in Santiago and surf a bit further north than Pichilemu area, but looking to explore a bit more! What was the name of the first beach you went to ? 🙂
Hey did u take your own board? And did you get a roof rack with the car? Thanks
😊
Florianópolis – santa catarina
Garopaba – santa catarina
Imbituba – santa catarina
Laguna – santa catarina
Waves look so so fun!
to make it more interesting you need someone to film you or others surfing the waves from the beach
Can we see more waves? Too much talk
amazing
Viva chile.🌊🇨🇱🏕
What time of year did u go?
awesome video!
Are there some more protected spots (producing chesthigh to headhigh waves) when the swell is huge (which seems to happen quite often in that part of Chile) ? Thanks!
The filming thing is a touchy subject. A lot of locals at semi secret spots will take exception to people filming at their spot. Fair enough I'd say. It's hard when you're filming a travel vlog, but that's just the way things are. You have to see things from their perspective. Their waves are uncrowded partly because they are isolated but also because they are under the radar. With social media this can change overnight. I've seen it happen.
Since you're on your own I imagine if you hadn't been filming then the locals would have been pretty friendly. I have been to some notoriously localised spots and been treated very well by the locals after showing respect at the start. Hawaii is a good example of this.
Thanks for the great info with an honest & humble style. Planning a trip down that way for September. Have my eye on a point down south (chiloe region) that looks like can only be accessed via 2 day hike or boat. Prevailing wind is offshore. It appears this spot has yet to be discovered by the masses. Anyone know what I’m talking about? Can’t find evidence this spot has been surfed, but wouldn’t doubt there is a local crew keeping it on lockdown.
Not good, much better waves in peru, ecuador, costa rica… in chile that water is freezing and the waves are really bad, don’t go thee not worth it
what boards were you riding?
Chile is a Goofy footers dream, Lived here for 20 years
Awesome mate! I lived in Chile and down the road to south several times. Chile is a truly old school road trip, adventure and open the map to find a spot. I salute you to not mention spot names. Chile still these kind of surf trip that you have to search and find by himself the spots. Truly adventure. Please let’s keep this kind of surf trip alive. Internet generation just want the name of spots and how to get there.
Cheer’s mate.
Love how you roll bro. Can't beleive you slept in your car to put on a cold wetsuit on a freezing dawn patrol. Inspiring 🙂
btw, what month(s) of the year is(are) best for this zone?
im glad there are still locals willing to regulate vlogger kooks.
