BEST SPOT IN CHILE - its simply the best wave in chile. 15sec tubes when its on. Pullay Hostel is a great option. a lot of places want top dollar for not great accom. in Pullay you can have 3 meals a day private room in front of an amazing wave for the same price you pay for a dorm in town or at punta de lobos

- This is by far the best pumping left points in Chile...I agree with you Teddy,the trip sounds like a typical trip down there! Check out this link to the Chile section in psychic migrations with Ozzie Wright and Ryan Burch tearing Buchu apart,Has to be the best South American surf section ever! https://youtu.be/0GqohnnXIsQ Its starts about 4:00 minutes in...makes me want to move to Chile! :)
