| | catch the rebound off the breakwall when it doubles up with the next wave. when it's on - it pitches and barrels off to the sand. Very inconsistant - works only 20 times a year.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
Watch out for pollution, infection, floating bodies, rip-offs, muggings, sunburn. The few local surfers on the week-end are cool. The rest of the beach scene is outragous as only nigerians and crazy expats can provide. Everything for sale by endless parade of traders - swords, fake rolex, food, beer, beads, blow jobs, etc, etc. |
| |
General |
don't go for a holiday - it is not worth the hassles but if you're working in Nigeria, it's a blessing! |
