general information

Powerful wave that breaks over a sandy rock-reef. The rights on the eastern side of the bay are the go, breaking accross the bay into the small beach, yeilding longish walls to work. Occaisonally there are lefts on the western side but tend not to be of the same quality. Less consistent and less critical than the more famous Honolua Bay further south, it tends not to have the crowds and has a more relaxed vibe.
