Favorite spot of surfer. It is a bay with wave breaker in both side and in the middle. Looks good for some flat water riding near the groin up-wind. Wave breakers made out of rocks. The water is shallow for the first 50 meters and the bottom is sandy.

With over 140 km of coast that get the strength of the Northeast Monsoon, the prevailing wind between December to March in all of South East Asia. Thanks to the inclination of the coast the wind is mostly sideshore with few degrees from the sea depending on where you choose to ride. Also nicely situated appear that the Northeast monsoon doesn't get as strong as other places in Asia but if you are passing by during these months better not to forget your board and a big kite at home. Sideshore ENE and WSW.
