Surfing Quizala
Quizala is a beach break that breaks both left and right. It is best from the Jan.-May season (like the rest of the country) when there is little or no rain and the wind howls offshore all day. It breaks pretty regularly at 3-5 feet and often at 6+ feet and on big swells up to 8-10 feet. The right breaks closer to the river mouth and is often at least 200-300 yards, making for a rippable long wave with only a few really hollow sections. The left can be just as long but only on big days, but nonetheless both lefts and rights are consistent here and it is a wicked good spot.
