Dana
Edit SpotAbout
Can be good on its day, with a hollow mid section, but suffers from trade wind chop on most days. There is another left just round the corner which breaks into a little bay and is only average, and needs permission from the local army camp to surf. Both are really only average (this one is the longer and better), and hardly worth it.
You can see some big whale sharks out here (I did), but these don't attack humans.
Atmosphere:
Left that gets hollow in the right conditions and picks up plenty of swell, but gets trade wind chop on most days. Handles a bit of size.
Additional Info:
Need a boat, it breaks directly off the island offshore. Not a great wave to get too excited about.
