Extra information
Extremely hazardous spot, big currents, no rescue services, big waves, sandy banks and riptides. If you are a very good kite/windsurfer/surfer and you can pay the 200 Euro an hour for a rescue boat stand-by its worth it. Ask locals for more information.
Nightlife
Good, especially in the summer.
