It's the beach to the west of Kavite Road. You just walk down the path through the pindan cliffs onto the beach and paddle out whereever the peaks are breaking.

 Additional Information

It's off Kavite Road, there's a few different places to park up and then you have to walk down the access path to the beach. In the wet season (when it gets swell) the dirt roads are usually closed so you cannot drive on them (or risk a $$$ fine). You can drive to the port industrial estate and then park up there on McDaniel Road and walk the rest of the way (800m). bring some food, water and vinegar with you as it's a tough walk through the mud. Worth it!

Atmosphere

Only breaks a few days of the year and not many people out apart from the locals. They are pretty wave starved up in this region so if you're a visitor and want to come have some fun make sure you have respect and share the waves. Amazing atmosphere when you're surfing these solid 4ft red waves because of all the red sand that washes into the water!

General

It only breaks properly a few days of the year but when it is going off everyone is super stoked and having a great time! I've seen some people get full stand up barrels here and pop out, and also bodyboarders get launched off the wave into the air which is insane. If you don't surf bring your camera and get some happy snaps to share the memories later.
