Additional Surfing Infos
 Beautiful long peeling right, one of the classic waves of Europe. When the sections link up on bigger swells it is a great ride.

La Fats
Overcrowded and definately over-rated.
Lafetania is also affectionately called Laugh ats, La Fats or La Farts. Can get good, doesn't happen very often.

Hey Man!!
Had been there in October'06 with 8ft. Some Sets were about 12ft. The different Sections linked up together and the right was realy long and heavy. Not for beginners. Only rocks at the bottom. There's a strong rip which goes to sharp rocks!! Nice, long right when it's on. Had some long Barrels there.There's a camping directly at the spot(Acotz camping) and you can check the waves from your caravan. Nice view from the toilet tower. There's a heavy left on the left side of the bay. Only for Pro's or Kamikazies. Lot's of rocks at the take off section but really good wave. Have a lot of fun and bring more than one board!! Any questions, contact me!

Cote d Basque maxed out. 15 mins south 6ft perfection. Word from the wise - dont get caught on the inside, and have an ignorant German longboarder take off over you, and trash your board, without even an apology.
