About

Great wave, try it out if you have some experience...it quickly became my favorite wave while I stayed there.

Atmosphere:
The wave here is peaky and sectioning at times, but will line up all the way down the beach from one end of the cove to the other. A very consistant spot...the wave breaks on smaller days when marias and others are not...that's why it can get crowded.

Additional Info:
Beware of locals and bring nothing valuable with you. And it helps to show some respect in the line-up.
