The box - I visit Javea cause my parents live there and have surfed the box. Its definately not worth going to Javea to surf. If you live there and you wake up and walk to Arenal and see it going off then it is worth surfing just about. I mean seriously its like a 1 second ride and a little barrel maybe one re-entry after the barrel and that's it. And it only works with the right swell direction and the left is much better than the right. And I don't know why anyone is so crazy to put a spot like this where one or two people can surf on a website. Secret spots should stay secret and this place should not have been revealed anyway if city boys come down here beware we will do what we have to do.
