Additional Information
Be very respectful of the locals as they are suspicious of strangers and tend to lean toward the aggressive side of you show any attitude... Enter the water to the left of the river mouth, you cant miss the break. Also try and park your car next to an open business establishment, better to have to walk a little and comeback to a car than no car, if you know what I mean.

Really fun to ride wave, very hollow, water very cloudy due to river mouth. Overall fun wave. Pretty consistent even when there is minimal swell it will still show something.
