Camarones

Playa Camarones is a small discreet paradise located just 15 km south of Riohacha, in the department of La Guajira. This peaceful village, lined with palm trees and fishing huts, offers a natural setting of simple and authentic beauty. The beach stretches as far as the eye can see, bathed by turquoise waters and an almost permanent warm wind. It is a spot still preserved from tourism, perfect for riders seeking tranquility and solo sessions. The place is also famous for its natural reserve, where flamingos come to feed in the nearby lagoons, adding a magical touch to this typically Caribbean setting.

Location

Detailed information

The wind blows side-onshore (from the right) with excellent regularity. At low tide, the water becomes flat, ideal for freeride or first runs. At high tide, a small regular chop forms, pleasant for long and smooth sessions. The beach, wide and sandy, offers easy takeoff, and the bottom is completely flat and safe. The sailing space is immense: you can ride for several kilometers without crossing anyone. It’s a perfect spot for learning, progressing, or sailing independently in a peaceful and natural atmosphere.
