LIMA, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Peruvians are surfing, fishing and ditching winter clothes to flock to beaches in Lima as a heat wave continues to upend winter in South America.

"The sun is out constantly, it's been almost a week with strong sunshine, it feels more like summer," said Sergio Rodriguez, a surf instructor in Lima. "It has given us more work, people want to surf."

Rolando Quisca, a local fisherman, also said the heat wave had benefited him, citing an unusual amount of albacore, a fish that lives in warmer waters.
