LOCALS - founf the locals hyper possesive about this break,allthough i did explain they had it 51 weeks of the year,and this week was mine!!!!! so i wasnt going to be bullied or intimidated by them!!after a short gesticulating session i got on with surfing some great waves.seriously if you show fear they will walk all over you,turn up like you own it and they will back down.....i dont like talking like this but in this instance it was what worked

Local? Schmokal! - So this froup of local surfers want to play,"Spot, spot, who owns the spot?" Let them have it then, since this dumb island chain relies on tourism to flourish, when they get alittle hungry they'll come around to hospitality for those travellers who simply wanna surf!
