    Editor’s Comments

    Pick your surfboard and go to the water, you don’t need to know more than that. In a hot weekend the beach is crowded with beautiful people, after the surf and when its flat the night is very good, you can’t get bored there. A fun wave for all surfes with rights and lefts.
