Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Meritzo consists of two breaks. There is a right on the right side of the boat channel that has a slow rolling shoulder that sometimes connects to another section inside. This spot gets better with size, and can hold large waves due to the width and depth of the channel. Across the channel, and considerably farther from the shore, is a lesser surfed left. The left is hollower and faster than the right but is also shorter and ends up on shallow reef. The left can also hold size but has strong currents pushing down the reefline during big swells.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
This spot is a long drive and paddle, but is very picturesque and usually uncrowded, especially the left. It requires a large swell to break well, so don't count on it being good. |
| |
General |
Meritzo is probably the best surf experience on Guam when it's on. |
