One of the best in the world!!! - But freakin' cold!!
The whole review of this spot is wrong!
Is a boulders bottom peak, it can hold a 3 to 4 meters swell with the right swell direction.
The town is a shit hole boring as fuck, but good excuse to get up early and head the surf before the off shore wind picks up. I've seen boards flying away and dissapear forever in the sea.
Make sure your leash is in good condition on a windy day, if your board flys away the paddle in is loooooong
Respect the locals!!!
