general information

when it happens...it happens. This region is basically the end game for any Indian Ocean swell that has managed to make it this far inside the Arabian Sea. The reef set up at the town of Al Ashkharah would be at home on any world class stretch of surf real estate. The reality is that the dominant winds during your small swell window are going to be against you. Early Morning and late afternoon glass offs the best time to catch this gem firing.
