Chiriqui - David

The city of David has several spots that are worth mentioning and they get the same swell direction of Chiriqui Islands and the Peninsula waves. This area is relatively unexplored, but we will mention these few spots that are more known.

Playa Las Lajas is a beach bottom break with rights and lefts that is located right before the town of David, right off of the main highway, about 15 minutes down the road. The beach gets packed with drunk locals on the weekends, and the wave is sometimes good, but usually does not have a lot of form, mainly a closeout. However, with the access of our 4x4 transportation, we can drive you down the beach to the point breaks where you will find secluded waves that are unexplored and unknown. This place can be surfed at any tide.

La Barqueta is a beach bottom break with rights and lefts that is located right near David. This break is normally choppy but it is generally only good when there is no wind, so in able to go surfing we must get there in the early morning. It breaks at all tides, but medium to high is best.

Punta Burica is the northern most point of Panama, on the border of Costa Rica and Panama. To get there we take you by 4x4 or sail boat. By 4x4 it is more complicated since it is about a 2 hr drive on the sand at low tide, we recommend the sail boat charter for this surf trip since its easier and there are more options including the famous Pavones in Costa Rica. There are about 4 left points that break along the point, for long, tubing rides. It generally catches about any swell since it sticks out in the Pacific ocean. It is known to be a better wave than Pavones of Costa Rica, and you will rarely find anyone out surfing. However, if you pick our tour by land, we provide a camping tent, and food because it is desolate with no place to stay or eat.
