Navegantes
Edit SpotAbout
Crowds are the main issue, there are some locals but it's not as bad as everyone tells you. Surfed the spot for many years and never had problems.
Atmosphere:
I surfed a lot this wave and I recommend it, can be epic over the winter. Some decent 4-5ft offshore and rights peeling all the way down to the beach, sick!
Additional Info:
This beach can be hollow and powerful especially suring the winter with offshore winds. Offers a very long righthanders and some good rights, all depends on the sweel angle and quality of the banks.
