This zone of Argentina isn't very consistent (8-10/30), but when it breaks you’ll probably have a good surfing session. The best waves are on morning when offshore wind blows slowly or sunset when wind slows down again.
Storms with south or southeast wind increase the swell size and the swell don’t last more than 4/5 days.
On summer popular spots are very crowded.
Seasonal swell & wind variations:
In summer the typical wind is from NE/NNE and in winter the typical wind is from S/SE.This place is very Unstable. To have good waves you need a swell from SSE from some days and then NO wind, after that you have to go to southern beaches to have on-shore wind anda have perfect conditions.

RE: Surfing in Northern Argentina - Hey, you´ll find the "best" waves between Mar Del Plata and Necochea. MardelPlata is a big city, with lots of spots, conditions and surf shops.. but it´s still a city. The south of mardelplata is very nice and peaceful.

Surfing in Northern Argentina - I am currently visiting Argentina and need some advise on where to spend 2 weeks surfing in Northern Argentina (somewhere between Pinamar and Monte Hermosa). Can anyone shed some light on a nice place to go?
