Additional Information
you can park at Carolines Beach House located in front of the wave. There is lodging with clean rooms and hot water and AC. They also have a restaraunt for after surf relaxation.
Atmosphere
This spot is located in the fishing village of Sabang. You can get boat rides to other surf spots nearby by hiring boats here. This spot breaks with any north swell and gets really good with the tides pushing in higher. Rarely does it blow out as it bends around the coast and is protected. Even with strong winds on the outside, the faces are still clean and surfable.
General
Not a great wave for barrels, although it does offer some in certain sections, this wave is long and has a nice shoulder for big gouges and turns. It has a deep channel for easy paddle outs, as long as you make the section. If you don't it gets shallow fast and may put you on the reef. Can hold huge swell due to the deep channel and rarely closes out. really fun at shoulder to head high...but better when overhead.

sabang - just finished a lucky 2 day trip..it was a grind to get there,but i feel it was worth it.the charts showed definite swell on the way,so it was either la union or this spot i had never surfed before..its probably no different from la union except its 1/10 the crowd..i had it to myself,than 1 other surfer later..if u want to hav a fun time go ther.if u want hollow killer waves go to cloud 9.know what u want n u wont complain.read the charts n u will score..carolines is the place to stay.good service and people and they have boards if u need.ok,go for it,u wil be stoked um did
