Solimar Reef
IntermediateSolimar offers a trio of options: a quick, ledgy reef peak called Solimar Reef, a mellower point that peels left over cobblestones, and a beachbreak that handles wind swell. The reef is punchy and suited to intermediate surfers comfortable with rocks.
Emma Wood
IntermediateA mix of reef and sand peaks with a punchy take-off that mellows into long walls when the reef section lights up. The spot catches most swells and can produce long right and left walls around the offshore reef.
Mondos Beach
Beginner friendlyA mellow, rolling wave that breaks over a gently sloping sandbar and cobblestones, ideal for longboards and learners. Mondos picks up most swell directions and has a friendly, welcoming vibe.
