BUT I have seen it going off in late July, so you might get lucky.... board rentals can be found at Soledad surf shop right on the point. if the surf is flat in Mancora, you can hire a cab or van to drive you to lobitos/piscinas where there is ALWAYS surf (about 45 minutes drive).
good luck!

Surf boards! You can also rent boards in Lima for the week, which is cheaper sometimes.
