Additional Information
select your waves carefully dont take the first 1 or 2 of the set, let the first two put some water over the sharp and shallow somtimes exposed rock heads this is a serious wave that has an incredible barrel section that spits compressed water out like the pipe does. There is a good left 200 m down the beach that pumps also. you can set up camp right in front of this spot.There is another spot 4ks before you trek to here where I have seen the biggest waves of my life, its a huge bay with rights wrapping around the point dont know the name but its on the walk
Atmosphere
the atmosphere here is intense because of the Hawaiian power its a desert camp set up its an experience.

- how it's possible that photo#4 is from graciosa when you see graciosa at background? don't show photos of bad san juan and claim that they are from graciosa. i bet that guy who submitted that photo hasn't even been there. what a kook.waves are sick there but there's already a tight local crew there and being that small of an island, they are on it. don't leave your manners in orzola if you decide to give it a go. you won't be surfing alone, unless you decide to tackle el coral when it tops eight feet island style.

Agree - Después de leer estos picks ya me doy cuenta con quien trato. Una de dos o no teneis ni puta idea o quereis mantener la isla libre de gente.Sólo os diré lo siguiente:El corral.- insane perfect.Montaña amarilla.- Absolutly perfectFranceses.- The most funny right.El alambre, off shore that heavys onshore days in the rest of the island.You are righy, this island is sheet. All for me
