Crystal Beach Break
Edit SpotAbout
its cool during the north swell. during south swell its shit, choppy as hell. just a mess. during the south swell pundakit kicks ass.
Atmosphere:
this spot is bad for half the year. during the north swell its pretty good, but you have to check the swell before you go. make sure its at least 3-5 ft. or else forget the trip.
