La Machacona
Edit SpotAbout
It breaks closely together of the border in high water with the sea entering of the south. Although you can surfear its right, is the left the one that better breaks, very powerful and tubera. It holds the days of North wind well although he is better to surfear it in the days that are glassy. There are days in which the north is completely plate but that same day can here be out of phase, something that happens frequently in summer.
