 Additional Information

One of the few rights that can be seen of this kind, a very entertaining wave, is very mushy most of the time, but when there is no wind or is in good condition, can throw an occasional pipe.

Atmosphere

Very relaxed and entertaining atmosphere. Longboard, bodyboard and surf sharing in this entertaining spot. BUT BE CAREFULL WITH THE ROCKS!!!!

General

Entertaining and good spot
