Additional Information
there are two main waves here: one by the rocks at the right side of the beach, it is 100-150m right-hander... and the other one is in front of the houses.. lefts and rights hollow powerful and faster but shorter... sometimes there are other waves... look for yourself!
Atmosphere
It is a friendly spot, with good waves, warm in the summer with many hot chicks on the beach, hot nights and other options near by... in the winter it is cold (4/3) but there are many good days for surfing...
General
it is a perfect spot for vacations in the summer... and a spot where you can improve your surfing skills in the winter... don´t forget RESPECT THE LOCALS or else...
