general information

Playa Malibu lies at the mouth of the Chame river in the Panama Province. It's a high quality sand bar/rivermouth break, offering fast and hollow waves in a solid south swell. Access is best by 4WD and it's quite isolated. Outflow from the river means there'll be debris in the water, especially after rain.
