Calafia
Edit SpotAbout
Great potential and waves and size, gorgeous view from the water. When sets are less frequent, you can hear the Mariachi music drifting over the water from the restaurant on the point.
Atmosphere:
Keep your eyes on the horizon, don't let the view keep you out of the water 'cause the waves are super-powerful and worth the effort. Stand-up tubes very possible...
Additional Info:
Long rights. Works at all tides and a lot of swell. Northwest is the best. start out on a reef, if you make the inside connection you surf the wave 300m to a nice sand beach and have a open bay channel paddle back outside. it's a fairly tight little bay, easily paddled across so you can take lefts in on the south reef if that's firing. It mays close-out if there are southern and northern swells.
