Callao Beach is a popular destination for surfers, bugeros, and kitesurfers due to its consistent waves. It has a rocky seabed and is relatively shallow, but the strong currents coming from the Atlantic can be dangerous. Unfortunately, the same currents also bring in microplastics, making it difficult to clean up the beach.
