Intendance
Edit SpotAbout
The wave can be a good alternative when other reefs are unsurfable or haven't got enough surf potential. During the SE trade wind there is always something to surf but it's really on-shore.
Except that, there is a good atmosphere in the water. Respect the locals.
Additional Info:
This beach is half a mile of powder white sand and enormous breakers.
The waves are larger than most of the other beaches as there is no reef,
making it suitable for surfing.
It is also a fabulous beach for sunbathing.
