Ollie´s Point
Edit SpotAbout
Great wave, no locals no tourists. Long wave and cool place.
Atmosphere:
Was a really fun spot. Can get crowded with tour boats during afternoon hours. Pretty easy wave and the only danger can be the rocks but not much. No camping and boats are "supposed" to have permits for access.
Additional Info:
Potrero Grande - A right point break, with very fast and long waves. Not very hollow but quick spots and inside sections.
