This bay is large and has several interesting peaks. It is a good alternative to Doninos. Waves are a bit smaller than at Doninos. When the swell is big and the wind is coming from the South, beautiful waves are breaking here. South of the bay there is a long left which works at low and mid tides near the rocks. The north is especially good by big swell, when a nice A-frame peak apears infront of the big rocks left of the camingsite (not for beginners - watch for rips).
Overview
Atmosphere
General
Mini- Mundaka will form in the right conditions at low tide on a 6ft swell. Can get really difficult to get back into the beach sometimes. Rip pulls you along the beach and back out.

in front of the campsite
Yo people I just want to say, the wave in front of the campsite by the rocks, can be a perfect A-frame. It's always bigger then the left at the south of the bayLatersNiels B.
