EL surfing Mecca - hey whos revealing all EL's spots to the world, EL has great surf and is some what by passed by international and even national surfers. The people that surf there are mainly local. Although it's a shame to hardly ever meet travelling surfers in the oceans of EL, at the same time it's a dream to get uncrowded surf almost all the time. so if you a travelling surfer THERE ARE BIG SHARKS HERE!!!
