South Beach
Edit SpotAbout
Powerful pitchin' A-Frame waves, the bottom is hard-packed fine sand
Atmosphere:
Its always crowded no matter how big it is, and you better be bilingual. don't mess with me in the line up.(Nestor Menendez)
Additional Info:
Put plenty of quarters in the meter, and don't leave keys hidden under car(mine got stolen). N swells are few and far between but when its good there are fast hollow waves. South also picks up knee-head high wind swells from a N-S wind direction.
