Additional Surfing Infos |

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
the weather is usualy nice, the break is a nice steep take off with a lot of sections to hit and then it mushes out a little and reforms into a fun little shorebreak, i got my first barrel here. but watch out, theres a group of little punk locals who think they own the place because they are friends with the older locals, watch out they are pretty mean people but if u show them respect then they respect you. this is one of the most localized spots on the panhandle |
| |
General |
great wave, mean locals, deffinately worth it |
