CLOUD 9

5 minutes motorbike from the Resort. A perfect barreling right mainly but also left. Wave breaking over a quite soft reef. It's a world class wave and can get very crowded and very heavy. Best to be surf during mid to high tide. But possible to surf even low tide, just very shallow. Although it is a relatively short wave, it barrels nearly the whole way and guarantees high satisfaction. Not a beginner wave. Take turns and respect locals.

QUICKSILVER

Located next to Cloud 9, it's a similar wave but normally smaller in size. The wave is normally a right, but sometimes the left is good as well. Although not as infamous as Cloud 9, it should not be underestimated, as it can be quite heavy. Best to be surf during mid to high tide; low tide is breaking over dry reef shallow. It’s a fast wave with a beginning barreling section. Small can be a beginner wave but big is very heavy.

JACKING HORSE

A jacking peak that explodes on to a shallow reef can be surfed all tides, just be careful low tide. It can be left and right. The right can get very long.  The wave then reforms on the inner reef creating a beginner wave named Little Pony.

ROCK ISLAND

An excellent long right hander wave that breaks and barrels next to a island. 100 meters from Stimpies. Best with no wind at low to mid tide. When big get heavy, clean out set might come. It can hold swell up to double overhead. Accessible by boat from Cloud 9.

STIMPIES

A first class left hander wave that wraps around a small island. Fun wave under 3 feet - over that size it becomes very heavy but still breaks perfectly.

If big good on high tide as well. Accessible by boat from Cloud 9.

TUASON LEFT

Easily accessible. It's a very powerful wave breaking over a shallow reef. The wave is one of the best lefts in the island, however it only starts to work at 3 feet. Best at high tide to mid tide.  Low tide can be dangerous since it gets pretty shallow in places and close out. If the swell direction is good and wind offshore you can have 5 seconds barrel. You must chose the wave carefully some close out heavily. Super fast wave. Respect locals here and take turns, it used to be a secret wave until few years ago. NOT A BEGINNER WAVE.

TUASON RIGHT

Easily accessible. Breaking in between Cloud 9 and Tuason Left. Working only on South Swell. Mid to High tide only. Another powerful wave breaking over a quite shallow reef.
