Inaccurate - This posting should be ignored. The break is nearly impossible to ride, probably a 3 hour gruelling hike from town, and certainly not a regional classic. I lived there for two years and never saw anyone surf the wave because its too fast. Maybe a pro could get slotted but for mere mortals its just a close out (fun to look at though).
