Additional Information

You have to access by boat, only from Unguja Lodge. found by Nick and Thijs. can get very shallow and reef is sharp. along a wall that drops to about 60 metres so sharks are present. far away from medical help. do not go out when stormy because it is a very big area and you might get drifted far away by currents and wind.

Atmosphere

very little surfers, 3 at most. far from any medical help and can be very clean and glassy but can also be very gough and menacing. off a beach that is not accesible so it is about 20 to 30 minutes by boat from ungujalodge.

General

its awesome. sometimes fitt for beginners but can also get big and sometimes very powerfull so also fitt for more experienced surfers.
