- So it's a pro/kamikazee break because it's like Pipeline or Silver Strand in Oxnard? Not really seeing the link between those two spots so I'm assuming you haven't surfed them. I've never surfed Pipe, probably never will, but I don't think a sand bottom break in the Caribe should be classified as Pros only as I'm betting a lot of good surfers could hang. And being a boat ride or hike away with some locals would make blacks beach a pro/kamikazee spot.

how consistent ? - how often does it break because i know some spots in this area dont break that often

why pro or kamikaze?!?!? - First you gotta get there-no easy feat in a boat-car's a little easier these days. Second you better bring 2-3 boards cuz this place is like hollows-in puerto rico-pipeline-in hawaii and silverstrand in oxnard all rolled up into one nuggeting beach. Third the locals are all irie these days, they just wanna surf the places to themselves, who wants to blame them?......toherwise have fun!!!!!
