Additional Surfing Infos
 Heavy heavy heavy. Do not get caught inside. You better know how to tube ride. Some people say it is heavier than back door pipe. It can be like Teahupoo. Scary very Scary reef.
  Overview
  Atmosphere 8 years ago, this was a tropical paradise, now it is a bit wacked. Lots of potential for getting hurt. The area is mind bogglingly beautiful.

salsa is only listed as a right
the left is just as sick

comment by Fif, 2007-01-31 08:49:36

just agree...
... with the last message...an expert wave, on rocks yes but big sets are always breaking before the place they should.Color of the water with a grey day make it more scary than other reef waves that I saw.

Experts only
Very tight take off zone. If your not on the peak, you're on the shoulder and the ride will be over by the time you take off, and you're probably in someone's way. If you can fear top-bottom heavy coral reef barrels and win a paddle war with the best of them, then go for it, otherwise stay on the beach or look elsewhere.
