The surf break is not so often, but when it is, it gives very good waves appropriate for all levels of surfers. The wave type is beach-break and waves have very good right and left direction. The quality is normal and waves can be fast and powerful.
When the conditions are right, the wind blows from its optimum east direction and the swell comes from the west, making the place really great. The swell usually starts working at 1 – 1.5 m/3 – 5 ft and holds up to 5 m/16 ft and over!
The atmosphere there is very good and the locals are very friendly. Weekly, you find only a few surfers, so you have the beach almost entirely for you, but at weekends it gets crowded. Generally, it is a very good spot that is worth a visit!!!
