Additional Information
There is a Kid´s hospital (orange building) right in front of the spot, you can park your car in their parking lot. Don´t try to surf the wave by your self. If there´s no people, that means that its not hitting good.
Atmosphere
OK, you are riding a 7 foot pin tail, your best friend is by you, you can see the lines coming from far away. The faces start moving. Oh no!!! the set is too big and you are gonna get caught inside. note: you gotta know how to deep duck dive.
General
No spongers, its very nice. The differences between this spot and other worldwide spots is that you can really feel the power of the ocean when you are taking off. Try to surf it with a 6´3 like I did, and all your thoughts about surfing will change.

Grow up and get some respect! - Grow up and don't come back at least until you've grown some pubes.
