Visitor reviews of Aviones surf break
(NOTE: Reviews may be edited by our content team for the purposes of ensuring accurate and relevant information)
“I am from Puerto Rico although live in the US now. I have surfed this spot many times. This spot is has a bizarre powerful wave. It can be surfed waist high and above. it is best when there is no wind or when the wind is blowing from the south. However this spot can be surfed even when it looks like absolute chop from the shore. This is what makes it a bizarre wave. It looks like crap when it is blown out yet if you catch one of those choppy waves it will give you speed and thrills that you will wonder how in the hell can this wave do this. It is usually crowded and very competitive. There are a lot of sea urchins and the paddle out is over a very shallow reef which you will more than likely scrape your fins. Never fails. Have fun.”
