Yoff Island in Almadis is an exposed reef break that usually has waves. Winter and spring are the best times of year to visit. Offshore winds are from the south southeast. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the best swell direction is from the northwest. A right hand reef. When the surf is up, it can get quite busy in the water. Take care to avoid the rocks.
