Visitor reviews of Chatarras 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 I live in the US now. I have surfed this spot many times. This spot is Epic to say the least. It is a very hollow wave. Tube ridding is a must to be able to make the wave. It is not a beginner spot. It requires a unique combination of north or northwest swell with south winds to make it surfable the entire day and this is why the website says it is very inconsistent. However, if you surf it early in the morning before the wind starts blowing you will be able to score this spot very frequently. Once the wind starts blowing it become a very dangerous chop. Buggy borders can surf it waist high and above, but surf boarders need to surf it chest high and above, preferably head high and above because the wave breaks on a very shallow reef. The smaller the size the shallower it is and there is always the possibility of your fins hitting the reef on small days. The spot is capable of double overhead size. It a very competitive spot and very crowded in the mornings. People will be in the water at the break of dawn (5:30AM). NOT FOR BEGINNERS!”
