Additional Surfing Infos
 Give 20 pesos to someone to watch your car or else you may get rip off, and with those 20 pesos they wash your car.
Tourists, be careful, only take what you need, basic stuff, surfboard, wetsuit, rash guard, food, water and some extra bucks. Never go alone, a lot of shark in and out side of the water especially.
There is no help nearby so take you cell phone, some places there is no reception.
  Overview
  Atmosphere I´ve surfed this spot for almost 10 year now, when the conditions are right it's really good, but it won't always works.
  General This year in October there was a sandbar that made some epic waves, really rear in the gulf perfect tubes. Crystal clear water, glassy with offshore all day.

Verashort is very good
Fellas, Im a local, I have 15yrs surfing in Verashore, Altamira, and Escolleras, all are good (when are on), but the best for sure is (Veracruz), we call it Vera-shore instead, congratulations for your description of the place, is incredible acurate, I am surprised, is missing one point close to tampico, I will pick up info. and pics. and I will submit, Gulf Coast in Tampico MX, is very fun for surf when is on, from Oct to May, depends on the weather...regards
