Exit the "Circuito de Playas" after a big concrete convention building, just before the Regatta Club. In Barranco. When you enter, if you don't have 4x4, turn right and follow the car marks, if you do have 4x4, go straight ahead
Atmosphere
Really great atmosphere. Everyone is friendly. No currents moving you about.
General
Great spot. Not very useful for first-timers but very good for surfers who surf ok. Lot of thieves be careful, specially in summer.

sucky photos - Triangulo is a awsome wave though in was ruined by a club named regatas who did a rock peir, stopping the swell. When the big north sweels come along this was can sart pumping 1.5 to 2 meters hollow perfect waves. Its a fun wave that lets you do a variety of tricks down the wall like snaps, floaters, cut backs, aerials, 360's ect. I'll encourage any surfer turists to come to peru and try this wave. I'm a peruvian 15 year old surfer waiting for someone to sponsor me.

BAD PHOTOS - Triangulo is nothing like that shit that has been posted. There aren't so much pics going around cause it rarely breaks. Wave's not fat and light as that asshole says, i´ve surfed it hollow enough to ride the barrel, gets pretty good, long ride and nice to fool around doing snaps and shit, just needs big swell. However it doesn't compare to la Herradura (just a couple of minutes from there), that's a five star point-break definately.
