GKA World Tour venue next to Santa Verónica: a point break with waves up to about 2 m on the outside and flatter water in the lee of the point, with side-onshore NE wind. The launch is narrow and there are rocks and occasional floating logs, so the outside is for experienced riders; riders also launch at Santa Verónica and go downwind to Salinas.
