What to Expect

The waves can get pretty big so if its too much, there is a lagoon opposite the beach, which is pretty good as well. Lots of space. Look out for some areas with strong currents, who can suck you out to the sea. If you get into one, swim to the side, away from those channels. Be prepared to help some swimmers. Watch out for surfers, and avoid the main surf spots, e.g. Bonfil and Princess.
