the atmosphere of this area its really cool, you have a litle far away a left hander wave that in a good day you can compare with teahuppo beacuse its really shallow the reef,talking about "los tumbos" remember the respect to the locals and say hi always you go in the water "respect first" ok??

tumbos yesterday - tumbos is a right break, heavy but kinda sloppy, powerfull. it breaks off a rock side on the left and goes right, its sand bottom but if you get too far inside its reef, playa bontia has a beach break but it tends to go left, thats on the other side of the beach. the left point is out a ways off to the left and it is a heavy thick lip.
