Additional Surfing Infos
 you can park at Carolines Beach House located in front of the wave. There is lodging with clean rooms and hot water and AC. They also have a restaraunt for after surf relaxation.
  Overview
  Atmosphere This spot is located in the fishing village of Sabang. You can get boat rides to other surf spots nearby by hiring boats here. This spot breaks with any north swell and gets really good with the tides pushing in higher. Rarely does it blow out as it bends around the coast and is protected. Even with strong winds on the outside, the faces are still clean and surfable.
  General Not a great wave for barrels, although it does offer some in certain sections, this wave is long and has a nice shoulder for big gouges and turns. It has a deep channel for easy paddle outs, as long as you make the section. If you don't it gets shallow fast and may put you on the reef. Can hold huge swell due to the deep channel and rarely closes out. really fun at shoulder to head high...but better when overhead.

just finished a lucky 2 day trip..it was a grind to get there,but i feel it was worth it.the charts showed definite swell on the way,so it was either la union or this spot i had never surfed before..its probably no different from la union except its 1/10 the crowd..i had it to myself,than 1 other surfer later..if u want to hav a fun time go ther.if u want hollow killer waves go to cloud 9.know what u want n u wont complain.read the charts n u will score..carolines is the place to stay.good service and people and they have boards if u need.ok,go for it,u wil be stoked um did

Recently Surfed
Just came back from a surf trip on the west coast of Luzon. Stayed at Caroline's surf resort for one night and it was great! Caroline and Darrin are a very hospitable couple from the states. Their resort is literally a stones throw from the break. Although I caught the break after the swell it was still a fun wave. When small be careful of the shallow reef! Cause of the small waves at the time i rented their longboard and caught some fun looooonnnnnggg waves. If you get there on a swell they can hook you up witha boat that will take you to two other breaks off an island that will offer lefts for us goofy footers. I suggest surfing this break if you ever get the chance, and also staying at Caroline's surf resort. Its worth it!
