Talafofo Bay
Edit SpotAbout
Very good spot! Gets crowded when waves. Locals are cool and can be dicks but overall a great spot
Additional Info:
Mostly, you cant surf this everyday, you have to wait for a typhoon. There is the Ocean break that gets big and has dangerous reef. The Ocean wave rolls into the bay and it breaks perfect into the bay
