general information

Fast and powerful right and lefts breaking over lava rock reef. Waves year-round but the lefts during a solid summer southwest swell with offshore trades blowing is when it heads towards epic status. Gets mighty fast and critical at low tide, so mid and above for most us. Popular local spot with local crew to match.
