Additional Information
this place is ok if the other side of the islands not working, but its only a beginners break and is frequently flat. ive see it big and it tends to close out but once in a while you get it real good. sucky and fast and hollow. but dont hold your breath. its good for gettin wet and u can leave the chick on the beach without her moanin. tiny paddle out.
Atmosphere
The locals are tame here unlike the rest of the island
General
Better stuff on the island but can sometimes pay off. theres some good stuff up the coast from it so check it out on the way.

Arrieta - I went up to Arrieta last week, it was working good. Like it said, hollow and fast. Be careful for the rocks as a small rip could take you to them. Locals were not tame at all. I showed respect, but still got snaked all of the time. Never the less, got a few nice rides there. Greetz.
