general information

Located a couple of kilometres south of Jaco, is a powerful right hand reef break that breaks off a large exposed rock. The spot is named after this rock: "Crazy Rock". It's great wave that should be left to very experienced surfers. Getting in requires a walk down a steep hill and paddle out through a small channel with strong currents. Likes a solid west to southwest swell and cranks at the lower end of the tide.
