 Additional Information

Paradise is a right point break that works on smaller swell than Sampson's Bak. Runs along rocks on the inside after a reform wedges over a rocky ledge. Gets extremely good in winter swell but works often through out year. Can get super shallow and hairy at times. Long, hollow wave at its best.
