Along with Gas Chamber and Chatarra this is one of the most powerful beaches on the island, with the heaviest and most perfect barrels of the whole Atlantic. Many call it Puerto Rico's Pipeline.

living the dream - imagine your self living in front of this spot for one year. waking up in the morning, looking thru the window and be able to see the same photos that you are seen here,with the difference that you are seen this scenario LIVE!!! and no one is in the water.Well this happen to me and my roomates when we where in college.Belive me we skiped a lot of clases.I never been in hawaii but i met some people that surfed pipe and backdoor, and they said that in MARGARA the drop itself and the L and R barrel are just like pipe and BD

- i spent the whole month of october 06 here. my grandfather owns a house right on the beach. depending on the swell i would surf, bodyboard, or freedive for some fish and octopus. he always has two rooms open for family and friends for free. just keep the fridge stocked and the rum topped off and your good to go. plus he has an extra pathfinder and jeep on hand.
