In front of a fisherman village. Its usual to see nets crossing the lineup.
Atmosphere
There is a very polluted river pumping in the middle of the beach. Be prepared to get out of the water smelling good...
General
This spot needs the right swell from North, to the outside waves connect with the inside and produce the famous long wave.
