 Surf Spot Characteristics

 Additional Information

Manglito is an awesome spot, probably the best right in the caribbean. It breaks on heavy north/northwest swells. It is also the most sheltered spot (along with gas chambers) from consistently stiff northeast winds that ruin all waves on all north facing beaches. So if the swell is getting in there the wave will be great since the wind will be offshore and not much chop in the water.

It is close to wishing well but i think its better since its more sheletered from the wind.

If wishing well its breaking then manglito is too. Wilderness has to be about 6-10ft+ for it to break. The larger the better since it breaks somewhat close to shore and when its small its just too close to the rocky coastline.

Gas Chambers is ussually smaller. So if you check out Gas Chambers and its small and inconsistent then chances are there will be a wave at manglito.

Its a very photogenic wave since its close to shore and has such good form. Coming out of the bushes on the coastline you get a glimpse of perfection that really pumps you up. The best waves start breaking close to the point and barrel perfectly all accross right infront of the parking area. Some sets will square up on the sand/reef and be too fast with tubes hard to make so pick waves carefully. If the swell has a lot of west in it a small left can pop up from time to time but its almost all rights. And when its big, right is the only option. The spot looks like it can hold very very large waves. I have never seen it close out really.

When its good there will be usually about 10-15 people in the water including some pros. If Gas chambers is breaking most people will be there or at wishing well. Its a heavy wave but very clean.
