Additional Surfing Infos |
| | Its best to take a boat to the peak to avoid the locals and the grueling inside shorepound. Once outside give the locals(identifiable by welcoming smiles and laughter) a few set waves. Then proceed to the peak and signal a left or right takeoff with the corresponding arm. Once a wave approaches lower signal arm and proceed to paddle. The take-off is hollow, only the boils let you in, pull in, kick out, repeat.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
The spot is generally swarming with happy go lucky locals. The kind of people you want to bring home to your parents on a cloudy day. The locals park their cars facing the break and honk at every ride so as to be fair with their stoke.
Its a simple place built on pride, trust, happy hour and a strong sense of community. Ask for Wendell, he will show you the ropes. |
