Great to Learn - This is definitely a learning beach unless you go on certain days and know the wind patterns.But in terms of learning there is a great school there called the El Emir Surf School. Speak to Diego or Caco if you want to learn how to surf with some of the nicest people I have ever met. 099 88 5935

kook central - This place is full of kooks, I surfed it in early november at about head high, and there was over 40 people in the water, 35 of which had no idea what they were doing, and out of the 5 that did, i was snaked by every one of them. They need to learn what a lineup is and how it works. This is definitely not a spot checking out unless you happen to be in town already with a board. and be ready for some paddlebattles with people that can´t catch waves.
