Visitor reviews of Browns surf break
(NOTE: Reviews may be edited by our content team for the purposes of ensuring accurate and relevant information)
“This wave Browns or Awili point is a perfect giant point break that breaks up to 15-18 ft.North swells best,very dangerous due to rocks directly inside of takeoff area. At 2-5 juicy waves inside bay rights that go into chocks reef very quickly.Too dangerous to surf as waves increase 6-10+. Rideable safely again at 12-15 ft as wave breaks outside from rocks. The bigger it gets the safer it is,because your farther out from rocks. Jet ski/ tow in best bet. Don't try it.”
