Additional Information
it is really easy to surf there , during the summer you can find some problems with the lifeguards because the currents are dangerous there, but it is negociable.
Atmosphere
calm quiet with no surfers, and multitudes of spots across i saw 3 times some fins but no attacks
General
the waves are really nice because the peak is a double-up. Indeed the waves are reforming close to the sand giving this powerful left .

- Great surf spot can look dodgy with only guys in the village but i think it tends to get better as most of the guys that find out go down there and get a god dam good beating and kicked out of the village.

Irish surfer - Been here a couple of times, nice place. Not to scare monger or anything but a European girl was gangraped here a couple years back. The little village is populated only by fishermen, there have been unconfirmed rapes of young men on the beach aswell. I had no problems but was wary more than once, they tend to get drunk and amourous. Don't buy them drink and keep a close eye on your lady friends...or for those lady friends reading keep an eye on yourselves. Isolated place, beautiful, but a long way from help if you need it. Cheers, happy travels.

world class - went there in 07 and was working like a beast, surfed all over the world in some pretty remote places but this one was weird, the locals love hendrix as they showed us, and they cooked us lunch. When we were there it was PUMPING, like 6-8ft monsters, barelling too. Check it out if you have the off road ability but dont go in the water if your not too good cos it is a mean paddle on a big day
