El Hoyo Access |
| |
Same direction to Corralillo but instead of keep going to the left up to the last beach just make a right a the first beach, once there you will find the break at the right end of the beach by the jetty (very near the dock). Get the rights otherwise you will find yourself riding waves on the rocks. Public access but you will have to ask the dock guard for permition to get the dirt road to the beach (no cars allowed to get in, you have to walk). Leave your car at the entrance parking lot. You can also get a boat ride from Caldera Beach for about $3 per head. |

Pro session
Took Andy Irons, Corey Lopez, and Wardo there to shoot for a new film. A little closed out but those guys got some sick barrels and took some hard wipeouts. Andy broke his board, Wardo got the barrel of the day. Corey the air of the day. They really
