There's always some swell here. That' why its a very popular spot in the island. It's crowded: take a low profile during week end. the wave is easy and perfect to begin on reef becasue the water is deep.

the locals.... - You guys are idiots. I am so tired of people complaining about the locals at every single surf spot. The idea never came that maybe it's you, not them? If you treat them nicely and respect the fact that this is their spot and you are a guest, theres no problem. Be courteous, and follow all priority rules in the water. Not that hard you guys...
