Description

WHY HUANCHACO?
Itโ€™s a laid-back town with uber-consistent waves, a centuries-old sustainable fishery, wholesome eats and a lifetime of discoveries for history nerds.
The surf is always on and the waves are fun for all levels.
Surf with a handful of people from morning โ€˜till the afternoon or join the friendly local surfers for a social sunset sesh.
Everything is within a 3 minute walk - great restaurants, the beach, waves, your private apartment, the yoga studio, the market and the cowork space.
Itโ€™s equal part traditional fishing village and spunky surf town.
Itโ€™s the 5,000-year-old birthplace of surfing, a World Surfing Reserve and the coastal heart of the most impressive pre-Colombian cities of the Moche and Chimu cultures.
The locals care deeply about preserving the integrity of the coastline and the custom of fishing with reed surf-crafts - which historians now credit as the 5000 year old origin of surfing.

Amy Schwartz

Amy Schwartz

Amy has structured her career in nonprofit and public sector management around her surfing lifestyle - which has ranged from public health in Nova Scotia, women's rights in Cape Town, instructing Outward Bound in Costa Rica and disaster response planning in Lima. For 17 years she's travelled solo to surf-spots all over Asia, Africa, South America, Central America and North America. Amy knows an excellent surf-locale when she finds it, so she's in charge of selecting locations. She looks for the ideal alignment of swell season, wave quality, small crowds and breaks that are within walking distance to delicious food, an excellent massage therapist and meaningful cultural experiences.

John Furness

John Furness

John is founder and creative director of Simple Square, a web design company that is defined by remote work. Team members and clients of Simple Square are rarely in the same country, allowing John to take his work on the road to places where he can surf, mountain bike and windsurf. With over 15 years of remote work experience, John is as fussy about internet speeds as he is about wave quality. Heโ€™s a master of analyzing swell, wind, tides, bythemetry and is a hopeless nerd when it comes to board and fin specs. Heโ€™ll answer all of your remote work, board selection and other surf-related questions.
