“Agree with above comment. Surfed there 30 years ago. No one there at all. Beautiful place but.. man that tide is something to watch for! Was huge storm swell out of control outside so surfed the small right inside the pass. Nearly got sucked out twice . The tide was going faster than could paddle. Not beginners either....”

“Super surf spot for all grades with dangerous tide... but no risk if being careful.
Beginners can practise at the first spot at aprox. 7O meters from the beach... and profesionals can have fun at the real surf spot "Parea Right"...when the conditions are good, there is a perfect long wave, hollow and a big tube could be surfed...
It is possible to surf the left surf spot... but it's a little bit more dangerous because of the reef... and sharks.
Bye, and enjoy the ride.”
