Water levels vary from day to day. Check the tide schedule before coming here - at low tide it can be dangerous to launch and ride here. Sometimes it is high tide in the morning and low tide midday (unridable) and high tide again in the late afternoon. Sometimes it starts off as low tide and then the water slowly rises. The immediate area in front of the beach is mostly flattish water (not real flat but not horribly choppy either), then there's a reef 175 meters out where the waves break. Beyond the breaking reef the sea is rough. The spot can handle about 10-15 riders at a time (depending on rider experience), but there is some extra room east and west of the main spot (but the waves and wind is not as good there, and the wind becomes very off-shore to the west). The waves are dominantly right-hander waves, breaking over a shallow but mostly safe reef. There are two coral heads that stick up close to the surface in the impact zone even at high tide, so watch out for those two. It's a white beach with crushed corals. There are trees on the beach and the wind can be very gusty, so be careful when launching and landing. This is not a spot for beginners. The wind is generally good here during the NE monsoon but can vary greatly from day to day and week to week. Bring both a small and a big kite. The wind can get quite gusty, particularly when the wind comes from a more easterly direction. The wind varies from side-on-shore to side-off-shore. A few hundred meters downwind (i.e., to the West) the coast curves southwards which means that the wind becomes completely off-shore there. There are only two seasons in the Philippines: rainy and summer. During the months of March to May, you can get away with wearing just shorts. During the months of October to February, wind speed picks up immensely and it gets really chilly. During the summer months, it can still get a bit cold at night so guests are advised to pack jackets. Water: Chop, Smallwave, Mediumwave, Bigwave. Features: Rooms, Shower, Toilet, Food, Parking. Rider ability: Beginner, Intermediate, Expert.
