Mostly, you cant surf this everyday, you have to wait for a typhoon. There is the Ocean break that gets big and has dangerous reef. The Ocean wave rolls into the bay and it breaks perfect into the bay
Atmosphere
General
Very good spot! Gets crowded when waves. Locals are cool and can be dicks but overall a great spot

x surfing wanna be - Just a note of thanks to all the gang on Anderson and Naval Base 1965-1967 for letting me hang around with the group. Through a board in once in awhile and loved watching you guys that could really do it. I see some familiar names here; and Tom Chambers...God Bless your soul. Hoping all is well with all of you.

Ole Reliable - Whenever I was desperate, I grabbed my longboard and hit Talafofo. Especially if there was wind. I surfed many a one foot days at the bay and had fun. It was good to just be in the damn water.
