general information

Rick's Reef is probably the most consistent spot on the island. But just because it has waves doesn't mean you should go and surf it. It's powerful and gets hollow, breaking over a live coral reef that can slice and dice. So best know what you're doing when the waves get up, but for those who do, the possibility of a short fast right hand barrel awaits.

Located in front of the Sheraton it's one of the easier access spots around. Named after one of the original surfers to take on the reefs of Guam, Rick Value.
