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.
Atmosphere
Great long wave, few crowds.
General
Dont drop in on anyone.
