sosua
been there a few times now, all three times there was decent surf, tough to get out there though, 15 min paddle. Locals can be difficult to get along with so be respectful of them and you should be fine. lots of sharp rocks and coral, so STAY ON YOUR BOARD!this is a real spot, i could also see what the "snorkel guy" was talking about, sosua is a huge bay with awesome views, the surf spot is very small but effective, maybe you didn't see it???? it is very consistent.

yeah right!!!!
I was in caberete 2 years ago surfing encuentro. I went to sosua one time, and the only thing you'll find on that beach is a bunch of locals hasseling you to by their trinkets. that reef is calm, glass. I suppose the guy who left feedback on this one thought he was on WANNASNORKEL.com. It would be great if you like to snorkel! Not surf. Whoever is posting these bogus surf spots needs to stop.
