 Additional Information

Located deep inside the bay, this wave has similar qualities to macaronis but on a smaller scale. This semi-long wave can be deceiving if not seen from the front. Mid to high tides and moderate to large swell needed to get it good. Breaks on a perfectly shaped semi circle reef and offers extremely playful walls and tubes. Great for intermediate surfers or experienced ones who want to let loose.
