Pui Pui
Pui Pui is a remote stretch of crystal-clear beach on Venezuela's Paria coast offering 13 to 15 separate surfable peaks. The exposed position picks up E-NE trade swell year-round, and the lack of crowds means you can surf peak after peak in warm, transparent water. The rough road in keeps the masses away, preserving one of Venezuela's most magical surf zones.
